You don't have to accompany her. It's fine you are already here.
She doesn't need a visitor's visa.
She should show that she is on your study permit. When you get that approval from Canada Immigration she arrives showing that.
She doesn't need to get a labour market opinion or anything like that.
Once she is here she applies for an open work permit and can work for whomever she wishes once she gets that.
She doesn't need a visitor's visa.

My son, a Philippine passport holder and a japan permanent
My son, a Philippine passport holder and a japan permanent resident visa holder is currently studying in University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada. He is in his 2nd year now. He went to Vancouver last September 2021. His student visa was only valid until January 2022 so he applied for an extension of his visa last November 2021 and was granted an extension last Feb. 2022. A study permit was delivered to his school dorm that time. We assumed that it was the only document he needed to stay in Canada and to enter Canada again if he will exit for vacation. He exited Canada last April 2022 and went back in August without any problem. He came back to Japan for a Christmas vacation last month but when he checked in at Narita airport last January 13, Friday to go back to Canada to continue his studies (2nd year, Winter term), he was refused to board the aircraft at the airport check in counter. The check in counter supervisor called the Canada Visa Application Center in Tokyo, we were able to talk to an officer and we were told that my son has to have a separate visa to enter Canada again. I told him that my son was able to travel back to Canada last August 2022 without any problem, just the study permit with him. He said that he doesn't know how he was able to travel that time without a separate visa. … read more
