In a word, no. You can't get it back, except as pension when you retire, if you are eligible. By all means call CRA to confirm this.

No. Although, if you return to Canada in the future, the number of years you contributed previously will be counted towards your eligible CPP amount when you retire. Best to call CRA for more info.
