The biometric instruction letter comes approx 48 hours after applying online. When did you apply? I don't believe they would accept your biometrics before letter. I know someone who tried but was sent back and was asked to wait for the letter.I checked MyCIC Account many times to see if i've email from IRCC for Biometric instruction, But nothing like email yet.

Maybe your application is incomplete or photographs are not in the right specifications. Hope you've emailed the visa officeOn the 12th of june. i only recieved submission confirmation email. i was surprised why i didn't receive the Biometrics letter. I keep my fingers cross
I submitted all the required documents, I emailed the visa office and here is there replied! We have received your email to the Consulate General of Canada's Immigration Section in Los Angeles and will review it shortly. Please note: if the information requested is available on our websites (www.losangeles.gc.ca or www.cic.gc.ca), or your application is still within standard processing times (www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/times/index.asp"http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/times/index.asp), we will not provide a response to your message. I'm just convinced with the processing. I'll looking up to new week and hope for good responds.

You must request the visa office to send you the Biometrics Information Letter (BIL)
No, you must give your biometrics for Canada as well.
Here's what the CIC website states for this:

You can send a web form enquiry to the relevant visa office for your country of residence + an email to request for the BIL.10th June.
If you applied through an agent then IRCC will communicate only with your agent
