If I have refugee travel document issued in Kenya, is it possible for me to travel to Canada without visa? Or being refused to grant me a visa?

You would need to apply for a visa:
Most refugees or stateless people need a visa to travel to Canada
You would still need to meet the basic requirements (and having a refugee travel document would not, in itself, disqualify you from being granted a visa):
Basic travel requirements
You must meet some basic requirements to travel to Canada. You must:
- have a valid travel document, like a passport
- be in good health
- have no criminal or immigration-related convictions
- convince an immigration officer that you have ties—such as a job, home, financial assets or family—that will take you back to your home country
- convince an immigration officer that you will leave Canada at the end of your visit
- have enough money for your stay. The amount of money you will need depends on how long you will stay and if you will stay in a hotel, or with friends or relatives.
You may also need a medical exam and letter of invitation from someone who lives in Canada.
Some people are not admissible to Canada, which means they are not allowed to enter the country.

Which for a refugee is impossible to get the "convince an immigration officer that you have ties—such as a job, home, financial assets or family—that will take you back to your home country", but if one interpret "home" as hosting country.

@GiacomoCatenazzi In this case, it is ties to the country of refuge they will look for.
