The visa officer will adjudicate the application and its merits at the time they receive it. The VFS does not have the mandate to adjudicate applications, they only review it for completion.
Thus it depends on the time the visa officer receives it, not the submission time. When it is received after the event for which you planned to visit has passed, it is supposed to be rejected because it fails the trip purpose consideration. Refer to the Operational instructions and Guidelines for Canadian visa officers.
