As Czech Republic is now part of E.U/Schengen they can't make up there own visa rules for non-citizens. This is a decision E.U would have to make and it is highly unlikely E.U would ever require Schengen visas for Canadian citizens.
If you get married before you land, you will have to inform CIC before landing and add your spouse to the application. Your spouse will have to complete medical and background checks. If you land without telling them about your status change you will be misrepresenting and you will not be able...
You should apply for you SIN number as soon as possible since you will need your SIN number to work. You can wait up to 90 days to apply for health card as Leon said, would won't get it until after 90 days anyway.
