You normally can't.. I haven't read your previous posts so there is not enough information here to explain why you believe that you are eligible for an OWP.
I am being laid off. And I have my wok permit till 2020 August. I want to stay in Canada and work here. I went to service Canada and they asked me to apply for a open work permit which I did. Now I’m not sure if I’ll get it.
In addition what will happen to my spouses OWP.
Why would you go to Service Canada for immigration advice? From what you've said, you don't qualify for an OWP and it will be refused.
Nothing happens to your wife's OWP; it remains valid until expiry.
Cause there was no other way. IRCC was very hard to reach and my employer urged me to ask Service Canada.
I’m a physio. Will that play any role in getting an open work. Cause I did the questionnaire for eligibility. It said that I am eligible to apply for OWP. But reading all these post makes me very nervous.
And thank you for responding about spousal OWP.
Service Canada has nothing to do with immigration.
Your profession makes no difference. If the questionnaire told you that you qualified for an OWP, either you answered something wrong or you have not explained your full situation here on the forum.
Thank you for that response.
I just said that

- I am subject of a removal order that is unenforceable
You have never mentioned anything about a removal order. Why have you been issued one and why is it not enforceable?
I understood as removal order from work. But now that I researched it more I understand It’s for refugees. I think I made a big mistake. I misunderstood.
What is my best option here. Please help.
Yes, that was a big mistake. Withdraw the OWP app. You can remain in Canada while your current permit is valid but can't work anywhere else. You would need a job offer with an LMIA from a new employer in order to apply for another work permit.
I got an offer from a new employer and he is willing to apply for my LMIA can I make modifications to my existing OWP application or do I need to apply for a fresh one?
Thank you for your response.
Unfortunately I could not find how to cancel my current application (OWP). I don’t know how to do that and where to find it.
In addition before my view visa is issued can I do volunteer work or train under my new employer?
Thanks in advance.

No, you cannot train or "volunteer" with your new employer. That would be illegal work.
