QUESTION:
Dear David,
I was interested in finding out a few answers of the questions
which i have to get my self sponsored by my fiancé into Canada.
She and her family immigrated to Canada to  xxxxxxxxxxx, xxxxxxx
a month ago and  she  is working there full time, they recently
got  their PR Card as well. We got engaged on 5th July 2005. I am
finishing my degree in computers from the UK and am here on a
student visa. We got engaged with all our families blessings and
have got a pictorial proof of it. We have settled the dates of
the wedding which is on the 24th of Dec 2006 in Pakistan and a
proof of the booking can be provided as well please advise me as
in how  strong our case is and how shall we go about it as i have
recently developed my interest in immigrating over to Canada for
a better future.
Kind Regards,

Canada does not allow a fiancée to be sponsored to Canada.  A
spouse out of the country can be sponsored by a PR but the PR
spouse must be in Canada.
However, if you are about to graduate with a degree in Computer
Science you may qualify on your own which would be a clean way to
come to Canada. Or, You might want to register in a post graduate
course in Canada  and come as a student and have her sponsor you
from within Canada which would be easier and quicker.
The following is the paperwork your wife will need to fill out
"after" the wedding.
In the meantime, you could get started on your own paperwork.
The following other Q & A contains the paperwork for a spouse to
sponsor a spouse and at the end, you will find a spot to fill in
a self assessment quiz.

The following deals with sponsoring a spouse into Canada:
I can not guarantee that you will not have any problems but if
you have no
problems in any of your backgrounds and your lady in is good
health, you
should be able to sponsor her by filling in the following forms
by yourself.
If there are any "really" questionable situations, you should
consult with
an Immigration lawyer.  If there is nothing questionable that
requires
privileged communication, you can and should consult with a
member of the
Canadian Society of Immigration Consultants.
In general, you can likely fill them in yourself.  If you do need
help, you
can contact me.
