You can try calling the IRCC and see if they can access your records or point you in the right direction. Even if you don’t have the work permit, they do have the record in their system.
If you can’t find the exact day, you can put down the month and year you had your permit. Add a letter of explanation explaining the situation. It is extremely common for permits to be removed from passports as they get renwed or people change jobs. So, this isn’t a unique situation for them.
