[danishis82]

My Visitor visa is about to finished on 7 Sept 2016(6 Month Duration), but i got My Open work permit on 17th August 2016(For 2 Years). Do i need to go outside and comeback to Canada in order to validate It?

I got visitor visa on arrival because of British Passport.

You don't need to do anything. You now have status as a worker.
