Provided you didn't live together for at least a year before you came to Canada, there should be no issues sponsoring them.

As Scylla said there will be no issues in sponsoring them,provided you guys didn't live together for a year before you came to Canada.The Canadian immigration gives a lot of importance on family reunion.
