For those who have already had their oath, what are the documents you have to show them during the ceremony?
I heard that only having the PR card available is necessary, is that correct?

I received the certificate today. Here's the timeline, in case anyone's interested:
May 27 - Oath Ceremony (Montreal office)
June 17 - Certificate Shipped
June 24 - Certificate Delivered
Yes it is listed. I actually even called CIC today to confirm if they would accept this as a form of re-entry and they confirmed they would. However the problem is not with them, its with Health Services and ArriveCan. The person I spoke with at CIC said that even though they would accept it, they cant confirm if ArriveCan/Health Services will. I have tried to check with them, unfortunately they are not very helpful. They asked me to select Citizenship Certificate as the option in ArriveCan, but no such option exists.
I am going to try and call back to see if I can speak with another person. But since we now have to complete an ArriveCan form before returning to Canada, they could prevent entry, even if CIC accepts the document.
Not only with Health Services and ArriveCan...when you show up at an airport to check-in, if the airline isn't confident you will be able to enter the country, they won't let you board the aircraft. They are used to seeing specific documents and when you show up with something that is not common or typical, even if legally CBSA has to let you in (once you arrive) the airline may refuse because they don't want to take the risk of allowing you to fly.
