Issue around WP Transfer while in canada

[nikoli]

Hii,
this is regarding canadian law of immigration.
I am in canada for almost 9 months now (working for a client Y but a employee of organization X (based out of canada but has a registered office in canada) under a closed work permit (Filed by X earlier)).
I am running the risk of going back to my home country (as employee of X) since the client Y has a budget cut.
My spouse has a Open Work Permit based on my WP (does not have a job as yet).

Question --
1. If i have to go to my home country can my spouse stay in canada and work in an organization (once a job is procured)?
2. If i get in touch with a Recruiter and get my WP transferred (get a LMO filed through the express service) without going back to my home country (while resigning from my current employer X), then does my spouse need to get a new OWP or will the current one work?

I would be glad if i can get the answer to my issues.

PS -- Kindly let me know if this is not the right forum to post this question to.

1. You leave Canada, her SOWP is no longer valid.
2. There is no "express service" these days. You need a new LMO, new work permit before you could start work. Your new job would have to be A, B or O in the NOC for your spouse to be eligible for a SOWP>

Thanks a lot PMM for your response..

Is it possible for me to stay here after I quit my job under my TRV?

Can my wife work on her OWP then?

If so, I can possibly wait for my new LMO here in Canada itself..
