Wait, so what was wrong in your degree in PH?
They said that they are not satisfied the purpose of studies is reasonable and that I would depart Canada at the end of my study.
In other words, why in the world do I need a post secondary program when I already had my Bachelors in the same field. I just did not explain enough my need to study the course. So that's my plan for my reapplication, to write a stronger SOP.

I agree that it might be the SOP. In my opinion it makes sense to pursue a higher degree within the same field of studies as BS Psychology for example, and then take the MD route afterwards (Psychiatry) or AB Psychology and then take Master of Arts in Guidance and Counseling. Just strengthen your case when you lodge another application. State why it makes sense—how pursuing further studies in your field will open a plethora of opportunities for you when you come home to the Philippines

My stand on why I applied for the program kasi is I don't have much experience on my field which is Hotel and Restaurant. I took a few trainings here and there but not full time work. For almost five years I have been working in sales and retail, tpos when I tried to apply for a hotel here, they could only me an entry level position.
Now the trick is how to incorporate that in my SOP. :D
