Can I stay couple of weeks in Canada after resign my job based on closed work permit?

My employment is based on India and currently I am working at Canada for last 4+ years, for the same employer ( their Canadian entity ) under closed work permit.

My closed work permit is valid till July 2020 and visa also have the same validity date.

Because this is a closed work permit and tied with the current employer, I cannot switch jobs within Canada.

Due to some personal reasons, I am planning to resign my current job at canada and find a new one in India.

In this case, the day I resign my work permit becomes invalid (as per my understanding) , but I am not sure about the visa.

But I need at least a week to 10 days to book ticket to India, closing the stuffs like Bank account, Rental and others.

Question:

So, Can I stay 2-3 weeks at Canada after my resignation from my job which is based on closed work permit? Is it legal?

Did anyone have the similar experience?
