Citizenship is really not an issue in marriage laws. The requirements for marriage would be the same as for any two Canadian citizens getting married in your Province. Marrying a Canadian citizen is a common way for people to establish permenant residency in Canada. And Congratulations!

The marriage would normally be recognized in Canada- but simply being married to a Canadian wouldn't give the American any right to live in Canada (if that's what you're really trying to find out).
