No, your signature is not needed for her to apply for divorce in Canada. As long as she has lived in a province for at least one year she can apply. She would have to have the divorce application served upon you, but once that is done she can seek a divorce judgment without needing your consent. She can apply to serve you by other means if you try to avoid service, such as getting an order that you be served by mail. So unfortunately you don't have a strong bargaining position in the manner that you describe.
