Or an alternative idea I'd suggest is that mention on the cover letter in your 2nd application that you made X error on your application received by CIC on XYZ date, therefore you would like that application to be withdrawn and this new one to be used.
And from cover letter, I remember some members were asking for format of cover letter. So here I'd like to share the (edited) cover letter which I used, I think it could be useful for some of forum members.
