she needs to sponsor you if you intend to live in Canada. checkout the website below, it discusses everything she needs to do to bring you here in Canada. congratulations!

Even as her husband, you have no rights in Canada.
check Canada Immigration, you have to go through the hoops, do the paperwork, she has to prove she can support you financially, you cant work if you dont have status.
It takes a long time, it can be expensive - you have to apply to immgrate to Canada.
I have posted many times being married to a Canadian does NOT mean you will be accepted into Canada, neither does having a baby born in Canada. There are NO shortcuts.

I have a friend doing the same thing, and finding it slow. You apply under family sponsorship. This means your wife agrees she is willing to vouch for you and the Canadian government is off the hook. HOWEVER, your wife has to be financially able to do so. That usually means she has a stable job in Canada.

you need to apply for immigration with her sponsoring you as a spouse. it can be a long and expensive process
she has to qualify as a sponsor and you qualify to immigrate
