Does anyone know that if a person who filed a PR application under a PNP, and applies for the BOWP-whether the BOWP will specify on the document that he/she can work only in that specific province? Does anyone have their experience to share?

Yup, exactly. If you are under PNP and when you apply for BOWP you can only work on the province that nominates you.
But if you applied under CEC, then you can work to any province you want.

PNP

When issuing a bridging open work permit to an applicant for permanent residence under the PNP, the employment location on the work permit must be restricted to the nominating province. Therefore, the Province of destination value must be selected and then the City of destination value should be selected to show the province or territory NES (not elsewhere stated). For example:

Province of destination: AB
City of destination: Alberta NES
FSWP, FSTP, CEC

For a bridging open work permit issued to FSWP, FSTP or CEC, there are no restrictions to employment location and therefore the Province of destination value must be set to UNK first, and then the City of destination value of “Unknown” can be selected as follows:

Province of destination: UNK
City of destination: Unknown
