BTW, here is a thread in which people were posting the same query. I havent gone through it but it may be useful for OP:
https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-i...nt-during-covid-19-restrictions.706915/page-6

@canuck78 As much as I see, the OP and his wife (both having approved SP and OWP respectively) should be able to travel together without a job offer. If they travel separate, then wife will need a job offer. Ofcourse this is assuming OP's DLI has COVID plan.

BTW OP (@hello@all), don't take chances, consult a professional. Start with your university immigration consultant (if they have one, many do). If they cann't tell you with confidence or if you have still doubt then seek advice from a good canadian immigration lawyer. Also, if you are consulting a professional/lawyer, ask them this as well: What IF even after all this, coming to Canada my wife was turned back at port of entry, even if we were applying public policy as you suggested. Can any help be rendered at that time?

I am telling this because my employer's lawyer gave me contact information of his law firm and his direct number (PwC Law) in case I run into issues at Port of Entry.
Thank you very much....your help means a lot to me..thanks again
