I'm currently in Mainland China and in one week plan to leave for Hong Kong to depart to Canada. I just noticed that I cannot find my landing slip and possibly lost it.
Is there anything I can do?
I cannot leave HK without presenting the landing slip, can I?

Not having a departure card is no problem.

I would note that if you are in mainland China you already left Hong Kong. You should get a new slip when you reenter Hong Kong.

Are we talking about your yellow arrival card that you got upon entering China?

I'm voting to close this question as unclear (again) because it is not clear whether the OP is referring to his HK landing slip or a Chinese arrival card and because the Q is about leaving HK while currently in China, which is unclear until further specified.

See answer below from the Hong Kong Immigration Department. You can easily get a replacement although it appears you do not require it to clear departure formalities.
Q3: Is it necessary for a non-permanent resident to apply for a
replacement of landing slip in case of loss and where to apply?
A3: The landing slip bears a non-permanent resident’s conditions and
limit of stay. He/she should keep the landing slip while remaining in
Hong Kong. Under normal circumstances, loss of landing slip will
not affect the departure clearance formalities. Those who require a
replacement of the landing slip may apply for free at the Extension
Section (5/F, Immigration Tower, 7 Gloucester Road, Wanchai, Hong
Kong).

Totally true from experience . I am in and out of HK at least twice a month. No problem without the Slip. Also, twice I did get a replacement slip - but that was at the border itself in immigration ( just go to the main office and ask for it if you have a good reason for needing one )

In theory, nothing will block you from departure, although you should apply for a replacement in principle. In practice, there is absolute no need to apply for a replacement anyway. I never intentionally keep my landing slips for Hong Kong, and there was not a single time which the immigration officer actually cared about it. The landing slip is mainly for your reference so that you don't overstay.
