If I have lost my PR card and waiting a replacement card in Canada. How can I leave Canada and re-enter Canada?
Unless you hold a valid U.S. passport, you can probably only re-enter Canada at a land PoE in either a personal/private vehicle, or on foot.

It's not that CBSA requires a valid PR card (because they do NOT), rather the commercial carriers require this, or a PRTD, to return to Canada.

PRTD then I suppose. There are no instructions on how to apply for PRTD from Canada, if I want to leave say Aug 1 and return Oct 1.
All instructions are provided assuming you've never entered Canada and want to enter with a lost PR card for the first time.

See this:

Then, see this and contact user @Eve_2023 since she was one that was successful in doing this (see the last page in the above thread). She can also help you join the FB group that she mentions.
