You need to apply for the study permit through the visa office outside of Canada responsible for your home country.

Yes - it most likely will. Make sure you declare the two study permit refusals in your visitor visa application.

If the study permit refusal was recent, I would wait several months (6-8) before trying for the visitor visa.
