"Not valid to travel" does not mean that YOU can't travel, it just means that you can't use this document to prove your status as a permanent resident in order to re-enter Canada. If you have a permanent resident card or a travel document, you can always re-enter.

it says not valid to travel because you cannot travel with this on its own...you need your travel document (your passport) to travel...
