When you study, you need a study permit (if you do not have a PR status). As a student you can apply for an off-campus work permit that allows you to work off-campus for a maximum of 20 hrs/ wk. The idea is to give you enough hrs to work to earn additional funds to supplement your life as a student. But not entirely to help pay off everything. If you work more than the 20 hrs / wk, that'll be illegal.
