The single entry visa can be used for repeated entries from USA or St. Pierre et Miquelon if you do not enter another country.

It is better to renew it (if you have to leave Canada in case of emergencies).

If your work permit is valid then you can work even if your visa expires.

If your PR application is in progress then there are chances that your temporary resident visa (TRV) might be refused (CIC would assume that you might overstay).
