Congratulation for your Citizenship, how did you manage it being on H1B in US and not residing in Canada? It will help others if you give some tips.

Your wife can enter Canada with her US GC, no problem
Is Immigration officer going to give me hard time just because I ma married to GC holder?
---- No problem, you can sponsor her from Canada, as permanent resident but it will be difficult to manage PR of both the countries, getting married to US GC holder is not a crime but if she has to sponsor you for US GC it will take time
Please help. Do i need a Canadian passport to travel or can i just take my Citizenship card to the border? Please comment.

- Better have Canadian Passport,( I am not sure) you also wrote that you are H1b if you have H1b visa you can enter showing H1b valid visa
 
THanks ginnu for your comments, but do i need a Canandian passport to cross the border? or i can get away with just citizenship card. My initial question was INS officer can stop you if you are married to US GC holder? He can imposed that you are a future immigrant and i need to wait till iget my GC through my spouse. Just FYI i have not applied GC through my wife yet as it takes forever to get one. Please comment.

You should be ok if you have H1B, as it is a dual intent visa, whether your wife is GC or US citizen it doesnt matter coz you have H1b to enter US.
