Not at all, these things happen. In their eyes, you have legally landed in Canada and have PR status.

But my wife was the one that sponsorship me, so is no any problem to get into divorce now?
If she accuses you of marriage cheating, there could be trouble. Of course, there will be lengthy investigation and hearing on this. Otherwise, you should be fine but you would not be able to sponsor your new spouse for the next five years.

You don't need to worry about immigration.

Just noticed that your previous posts were from 2018. It does sound like you were separated before PR based on your previous posts. If they discover you were separated before your PR that would be an issue.

Even if it is "friendly" divorce, it is still not a trivial matter. Because during the sponsorship, it is stated that your wife will need to unconditionally support you for 3 years, so she has financial obligation for you. I would highly recommend you both talk to your lawyer to avoid any future trouble.

We don’t have any issue about the support, and I pretty sure we wont have in the future

You will have to complete a year of legal separation before you can get divorced in Canada, FYI.
