Do you both hold multiple entry visitor visas? And do you both still have valid status in Canada as visitors?

I don't think you can get a WP issued at the border unless you have a visa-exempt passport. Is that your case?

we don't have entry visa and we are not from visa exempt country. We just have our status as restored to visitor.

In that case you cannot apply at the border. You'll need to apply from outside of Canada.
