    A TRP is issued when you are deemed inadmissable for residency or a work permit, due to sone factor (i.e. a prior minor conviction).
    A TRV is a visa for someone to enter canada as a visitor from a visa-exempt country (i.e. not Ireland) If you are Irish there is no need to get a TRV.

    For a TRP, i don't think its a straight apply and you get it...the issuing of them are entirely at immigrations discretion and done on a case-by-case basis. you would probably need letters of reference, interviews, etc while applying.
