It depends on the NOC level of her employment. For you to get an open spousal work permit, it has to be in NOC A, B or O.

what kind of visa did you applied for? if it is Spousal application, once approved you will have a PR Visa. then there is no restrictions and you may work but if you are a dependent of NOC level of her employment, for you to get an open spousal work permit, it has to be in NOC A, B or O.
