Are you applying from within or outside Canada? It's not clear.

Either ways, it should NOT be a transit visa. (Transit Visa: is required for persons travelling through Canada for less than 48 hours on their way to another country. No fee for transit visa)

Starting on February 6, 2014 (00:01 EST), all visa applicants will automatically be considered for a multiple entry visa. The visa officer reviewing your application may be able to give you this type of visa even if you applied for a single entry visa
