Can I Remain in Hong Kong as a Visitor After My Employment Visa Expires?

Simple question this one with an easy answer and indicative of the fact that, even though quite a straight forward issue, the information is not otherwise readily available anywhere else on the web.
QUESTION
I am a Canadian citizen, working in Hong Kong holding an employment visa for 7 weeks. I want to stay after my job is finished (work visa will expire at the same time) to see Hong Kong, then travel to Macau and Thailand.
Do I need to have my visa changed from employment to visitor?
Thank you so much for your help.
