I hope my answer can help you
1st There is no spouse visa in Canada..

2nd Sorry but how can your wife and daughter can get PR? Sponsored by someone or else?

3rd no spouse visa here but once you apply PR, after 4months u will get work open permit (you have to apply work open permit along with your permanent residence application)

For the third point.
Only inland spousal application can apply for a work permit. And only if you are already in Canada, you can apply via inland.

Since you are in India, you will need to apply for visitor visa (regular visitor visa, not spouse visa). The chance of getting it approved with your wife and kid already in Canada isn't very high. You will need to prove strong tie to India.

How did your wife and daughter get their PR visa? Did your wife declare you as non-accompanying (and you had your medical done)?
