Do you mean your TRV visa on the expired passport is still valid? Because, the operational policy is that your visa counterfoil can't valid beyond your passport expiration date. However, since your visa is issued based on the expired passport information, I'll strongly suggest you contact IRCC. For example, for eTA travellers, If they get a new passport, they're required to get a new eTA. This may applied to you.

If you have a TRV in your old passport that is still valid, you can travel with that. You need to travel with both passports.
