Extend work permit with spouse's status

Hi there,

I am working in Canada as Post-Graduate Open Work Permit. My WP will be expired next year in August and my girlfriend is studying in Canadian College with Study Permit. I heard that if my girlfriend and I get married, I can extend my WP until my girlfriend's (or future wife) Study Permit expires. Is it true?

Also, after graduating from College (in 2 years), my girlfriend will apply for Post-Graduate Work Permit. Will I eligible to extend my WP again based on my girlfriend's PGWP?

Thank you
