My spouse (common-law) came here on a sponsored work visa last year and I was granted an open work visa. We recently separated with no intention of getting back together (whatever "divorce" is in common-law terms). What will happen to my open work visa? Who should I contact?

You can work/stay until expiry of work permit. After that, you should become eligible on your own to get new work permit.
