1. Most likely its an expired visa, usually you must enter Canada (first time entry) within 3 months of TRV issuance.
2. If not expired, fill up IMM 5009E (Replacement of an immigrant document), http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/forms/IMM5009E.pdf and submit to local CHC.

No the Visa not expired its from 4-4-2014 until 5-7-2015 multi


The "expiry date" of TRV is different, its not the date by which you must leave Canada. You must enter Canada before its "expiry date" (check top line of visa), its almost always 3 months.
 
so whats that mean , i should apply again for new Visa when i get new passport or they will only new passport to change the old visa on it .

I lost my passport with a valid visa / my passport with a valid visa was stolen. I still need to travel to Canada. What do I do?

You will need to submit a new application once you obtain a replacement passport. Kindly include a copy of the police report and an affidavit of loss when submitting your application.
 
i copied it from here http://www.canadainternational.gc.ca/sri_lanka/visas/trv-after-receiving_vrt-apres-recevoir.aspx#I_lost_my

and i guess NEW APPLICATION means u have to reapply for new visa and include a copy of the police report and an affidavit of loss.

I checked with immigration and they replied in my email

If you have already submitted your application, the visa officer will take into account your date of travel that you would have mentioned in your application form. Please note if your application is approved, you need to travel to Canada within the validity of your passport.

We trust that this information will be of assistance.

Immigration Section / Section de l'immigration/ MPI
Canadian Embassy / Ambassade du Canada



but nevertheless, you need to apply a new visa, anyway u can put your uci in your application.
