There are more employers out there than not who know how to get this done now a days. In fact, there are probably a few employers who have open LMO's who can put her name into one of the empty positions. The only cost would be to your friend who would have to apply for a new work permit.
Your friend should know that she is not obligated to work for any specific employer especially since she is being mistreated. She just needs to make sure she does the proper paperwork for a new employer.
If she quits she would not have to get a "visitor visa". She can remain in Canada on the status that she currently has until it expires.

No cost for an LMO? oh... I didnt know that. but wont there be any kind of conflicts of interest if another employer tries to apply for another work visa while she is holding one? Are the other employers obligated to contact her current employer for references?
I only know the basics of how this works and it sounds like you have more experience when it comes to this stuff, so forgive me with my initial 'brush off'.
