Parental sponsorship is by lottery and based on LICO. The lottery opens once a year. You may never be selected and many aren’t. So no you can’t sponsor them by having them in Canada on a super visa.

How long does it take to sponsor parents to Canada?
The estimated application processing times to sponsor your parent or grandparent to live with you in Canada is approximately 20 to 24 months, so it’s best to get the process started as soon as possible.

Can my parents stay permanently in Canada?
Yes, when you apply through the family sponsorship program your parent or grandparents will be able to apply for permanent residence.

How Do I Apply?
Step 1. Check if you’re eligible.

Step 2. Submit an online interest to sponsor your parents or grandparents.

Step 3. If successful, you will receive an invitation to apply to sponsor your parents and/or grandparents to immigrate to Canada

You have skipped all the requirements and just clicked on to "how to apply" but you have to be invited first by lottery. There is no program for sponsoring parents without being invited through the lottery system.

There is no regular sponsorship program for parents/grand parents that doesn’t involve the lottery (or some similar method that meets program limits).

If I remember correctly, there were somewhere between 150,000 and 200,000 expression of interests submitted out of which the 10,000 were selected.
