Hello Khalled,
Thank you for sharing your situation with us.
We can appreciate that you would be concerned about this. We are sorry that you have experienced this.
In the past we have asked this question to IRCC. According to an IRCC representative, it could cause processing delays if you are unable to provide your old passport (showing entry & exits ). This is because they will have to verify whether you have met the residency requirements in another way.
The representative advised that you include a letter stating why you cannot provide your previous passport and some strong supporting documentation when you submit your PR Card renewal application, to prove your physical presence in Canada during this time period.
In addition, you could also include pay stubs, bank statements, utility bills, credit card bills (they are interested in where you made purchases, not what you bought), cell phone bills, etc.
If you would like more information on your specific situation, you may want to contact the Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) Call Centre directly.
I hope this information is helpful. Please let us know if you have further questions and if there is any follow up to your question/situation.
