Absolutely they will ask you that. They will send you back with it. Don't waste a trip.
The are extremely strict.
Even when you have everything perfect, they try to find minor things here & there to make y come back.
Follow the checklist perfectly - Originals , Photocopy, Photographs, Attested copies ( If Any) and so forth.
Expect at least 2-3 physical visits before everything is done.
Thanks MITRON
If i don't have a original copy , what is the way i can get original copy??
Notary certified or affidavit ?? Any other proof instead of Landing paper??

You will have to fill up this form and mail it to CIC.
https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/application-forms-guides/application-verification-status-replacement-immigration-document.html
There is a $ 30 fee for that. Make sure you write LOST and ask for a REPLACEMENT.
Don't just ask for the Verification of Status as BLS or Indian embassy won't accept a VOS, it has to be a REPLACEMENT of the record of landing in case original is lost.
Also see this old CD thread for similar lost IMM 1000 record of landing.

Apply for the replacement ASAP. You can get a replacement in 1 month or 6 months. You never know! And you have absolutely No control over it. ALL you can do is apply ASAP without any mistakes in the application form and hope for the best.
The Canadian guys are just as bad as the Indian guys when it comes to government documents and immigration documents etc.
Incompetent and lazy union government employees are everywhere. Irrespective of the country.
