You as a citizen are already a "landed immigrant". Nothing to do except present yourself at the border and have proof of your citizenship. You would require to apply as a sponsor for your wife and would require to prove she is your wife. She could come at first as a visitor for six months and if the sponsorship is not complete at the end of that time she could apply for extension of her visitor status. If you have been married for some time then it will be evident to the authorities that it is not a MOC (marriage of convenience). She will not be allowed to work until immigrant status is established.
