No you don't apply in Canada she already lives in Canada. You apply in the US for a I-130 petition for spousal visa.

She will interview in Montreal because she is residing in Canada.

The total time from the initial petition submission to interview date can be anywhere from 9-12 months. (Montreal has historically been a slow consulate as far as interview bookings go.)
