Others can comment but no reason why not assuming you have a valid TRV still .Of course ultimately will be upto the CBSA agent at the border not what anyone says here . Others have done the same, and as long as all paperwork is in order with you when you travel back is no different than leaving and coming back during a course break.

Same advice given to everyone is to be honest with CBSA but do not volunteer unnecessary information, only answer questions asked and you should be fine.

I would like to share a story of my friend who went to college with me abt 6 years ago. After completing last semester he went to india to see his family and his plans were to apply for work permit after he comes back from india because he was still waiting for his transcript and official confirmation from college and unfortunately when he landed back in canada he got sent back to india because his purpose of visit to canada was to study and after finishing his course why he is comming back to canada....these were the exact words of CBSA officer its sad but true. If you can apply for work permit i would recommend you to get your work permit and than go.
