CR2 file, is the RAW data. Canon's Digital Photo Professional software stores changes in the CR2 file.
XMP file, is the sidecar file that holds changes made by Photoshop

It has been a while since I have had to deal with this issue, and I use Nikon stuff, not Canon, but there are a couple of things I think you should know.
I believe As CameraClicker said, sRGB is a color space intended for monitor or electronic…

You should see no difference in quality converting from 16 bit to 8 bit as a final step before output. It should look identical.
Go to Edit>Color Settings to change PS to ProPhoto RGB. That'll keep you from getting the warning every time…

I haven't used LR in a while, but I think they call what you are looking for "export". It will save a copy of your file as an 8 bit jpeg where ever you want.

You said in your original post that you are submitting it for printing. You should save them as TIF. The people you are using to print your images should be able to use that format. If they don't find another printer.

All you have to do is export the finished edited file. Select the picture in the library, then from the menu, click File and then Export. A new window will appear. That will allow you to change the settings of the export. Export Location is where…
