Here is a link to the Application.
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/guides/5545ETOC.asp
-------
Verification of Status Document

A Verification of Status document will contain information that appeared on your

original Record of Landing,
Confirmation of Permanent Residence,
Work Permit,
Study Permit
or other immigration documents.

This document can be used when you must provide proof of historical immigration information, such as the date and place of entry to Canada.

You may obtain a VOS document outlining the pertinent historical information for the following:

Certificate of Departure (IMM 0056)
Immigrant Visa and Record of Landing (IMM 1000)/Confirmation of Permanent Residence (IMM 5292 or IMM 5688)
Visitor Record (IMM 1097 or IMM 1442)
Work Permit (IMM 1102 or IMM 1442)
Study Permit (IMM 1208 or IMM 1442)
Exclusion Order (IMM 1214)
Deportation Order (IMM 1215)
Departure Order (IMM 5238)
Permit to Come Into or Remain in Canada (IMM 1263)
Authorization to Return to Canada (IMM 1203)
Protected Persons

Note: The actual document itself will not be issued, instead a plain paper document will be issued that will provide information about your immigration history.
------

The item #2...IMM 1000 & IMM 5292 or IMM 5688 is what you are looking for. Please check for its correctness.

The actual PAPER application will look similar to this.. :
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/forms/IMM5009E.pdf

At the bottom of the application you will have the DOCUMENT Check list. Please make sure that you have the required copies to attach.

PLEASE SPECIFY WHAT THE FEES ARE FOR... LOST IMM1000 & FOUR COPIES THERE OF. Or as many copies that you want.
FEES : http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/fees/index.asp

Just in the passing, depending upon the number of people who accompanied you when you landed, ask for that many number of copies and pay $30.00 each. Because, when someone wants to collect CPP & OAS later on in life, when they turn 65 or so, they will need a copy of this document, if they were minors, when they entered Canada.

It is in the FEES COLUMN, you specify, what the fees are for and the NUMBER OF COPIES THERE OF...that you WANT. (IT TAKES SOME TIME TO OBTAIN THESE.)

Also the Indian Government will ask you for this document for obtaining PIO or OCI passport etc., & NO ONE CAN CERTIFY THIS DOCUMENT.
