If the reasons why she is going to the USA is just for visiting, I don't think you guys would, but to validate a common law relationship you guys have to be living toghether at least one year. And you'd probably have a good reason why you guys have got married.
and well she have trouble getting back in to Canada?? That I don´t know, its gonna depend on many factors, like her immigrant status in Canada, even though she can visit Canada with no problem, I don't know how long was she permitted to stay, if she overstayed without CIC permission, the chances are she won't be back in Canada easy without going to the proper channels, like applying for a PR.

Now I'm not a immigration consultant or a lawyer, so my knowledge on this subject is limited, I'd suggest you do more research on the CIC website and if necessary get professional help.
