Hi,

Thanks for response.

No - you won't be given a TRP.

TRPs are only granted to those who are otherwise in admissible to Canada. It's a special category of visitor visa that isn't available to most people.

You can certainly apply for a work permit if you have a job offer and an approved LMIA. However none of us here can tell you if your work permit will be approved.
