Hello,

I am about worried about landing into Canada. As I understand I only need my visa and copr to land, and at the immigration office I will be confirmed as a PR.

However, do i need to show any savings? or any money? I need to know what the experience of others is, and if I need to have or show money, how much?

No - as a spouse, there is no requirement to show any savings. You need to show your COPR (and the passport of course), and if you're married, they sometimes ask for the marriage certificate, but that's about it - so really, nothing to worry about.
If you're bringing goods into the country, either now, or later, then you should fill out 2 copies of B4 and get them stamped when you land, to be able to bring things into the country tax-free. If you're not bringing anything, then don't worry about it!

Good luck,
Sweden

This went smoother than anything I have witnessed before... 3 questions at the booth directed towards me: where am I going, where was I and am I bringing in any alcohol tobacco or T-34 soviet made tanks.
