I am assuming you have not been in an interview yet, as all these questions you posted are along the lines of "hmmm... I wonder what they could ask me" rather than what questions are actually asked in the interview.
79. Tell me why this marriage or relationship is genuine.
The interview is to determine exactly what you are asking, so it is counter intuitive.
83. If I refuse this application what will you do?
Cannot be asked as this can be used against them.
86. Why didn't you get married to someone from India??, why to someone from Canada?
You really typed the whole thing and never thought...."man...may be I should stop"
88. If she is pregnant or not, if not, why not ?
Again, you really typed the whole thing and never thought...."man...may be I should stop"
96. When n where did u first time got intimate with your spouse ?
Again, you really typed the whole thing and never thought...."man...may be I should stop"
97. What contraceptives did u use ?
Again, you really typed the whole thing and never thought...."man...may be I should stop"
Did you serve liquor? What kind?
Majority of Pakistani marriages do not fall in this category and since they[interviewer] have been doing this for decades it is a weird question you made up. Just like the above
Did anyone get drunk or otherwise embarrass themselves at the reception?
Again, you really typed the whole thing and never thought...."man...may be I should stop"
When was your wife's last menstrual period?
What are you going to do ? Show a sanitary napkin as a proof ?
What did the two of you do last New Year's Eve? Canada day?
They haven't immigrated yet, so ..no concept of Canada day.

Offcourse all these questions are not useful for everyone and some you can eliminate but they sometime ask spouse about toothbrush, soap, perfume and other silly type of questions chc is unpredictable so you never know

Dear,OKK said:
You will soon get a letter from MISSISSAUGA office stating that you have been approved as a sponsor and file has been transferred to Islamabad office but actually they transfer your file to OTTAWA, so be sure that after two months of you getting this approval letter from MISSISSAUGA office voluntarily send additional proof package to to Islamabad and Ottawa office of your post-wedding contacts such as email copies, skype pictures, telephone records and stuff through DHL courier and keep tracking your package until it is received by Islamabad office, as soon as the package is received by Islamabad office, drop them an email stating that you have sent additional information of your post-wedding contacts and request them to confirm that they have included them in your file, God Bless and Good Luck!
