Question about CBSA entry procedures

I have my mom on a super visa. Her supervisa expires September 9th and passport expires October 9th.
If she renews her passport before her visa expires and comes back let's say in August with a new passport and a supervisa still valid is she allowed to enter?

Did anybody do this before?

Yes. You need to carry both passports.

Thanks a lot for your reply.
Is it somewhere documented in the CBSA or CIC rules that I can print out and give to her?
I was looking for supervisa expiration rules and I couldn't find any.

Yes, look for TRV rules. It says that a valid TRV should be shown on entry.
