If she is no longer receiving social assistance since October 2013, and is sure she is off the list of social assistance recipients, then yes, she can sponsor you.

As a PR of Canada, she will have to move back to Canada remain living in Canada while sponsoring you. She is only allowed short trips out of the country (no more than 2-3 weeks is recommended) otherwise she won't be eligible as a sponsor.

She will also have to prove that she has the means to support herself and you in Canada. If you go onto social assistance within 3 years of becoming a PR yourself, she will have to pay all of it back to the government.
