I believe if you are working, you need bridge permit. Otherwise you would need to stay in Canada as a visitor

If you don't apply for a BOWP, any work done after your PGWP expires and before becoming a PR will be illegal. This could be an issue when you go to do your landing.

If I apply to stay as a visitor , would I need to show proof of funds at landing ?
