Canadian permanent resident visiting Japan

I am afraid NO, as an Afghan national and Canadian permanent resident you need a proper visitor’s visa. Answer is from official Consulate-General of Japan in Vancouver:

I am a permanent resident of Canada. Do I need a tourist visa?

It depends on your nationality or the passport you hold. If you hold
a passport of a country with a reciprocal visa exemption arrangement
with Japan, you do not need a visa to enter Japan as a tourist.
Otherwise, you need one. More on Temporary Visitor’s Visas.

Unfortunately Afghanistan is not listed in those countries who are listed as a visa exempted country. Source: Ministry of Foreign Affairs Japan. Therefore as an Canadian permenant resident and Afghan national you will need a proper Japan temporary visitor’s visa.

Moreover, details regarding temporary visitors visa can be obtained from the following website:
