My spouse and I are about to start the filing process for the CR1 visa.  Is there a delay because of covid? Are they still processing applications?

They're still processing petitions. DOS started doing visa interviews in some countries (depending on local conditions of course).

In summary, it took 13 months for approval of the CR-1.  It took 44 months for approval of the I-751.  It took 4 months for approval of the N-400.   It took 172 days from N-400 application to Oath Ceremony.   It took 6 weeks for Passport, then 7 additional weeks for return of wife's Naturalization Certificate..

They are still processing applications. You can apply for marriage green card through an adjustment of status or consular processing. If you are outside the U.S. you would apply for an immigrant visa at the U.S. Consulate in Montreal. I found some good information here:
