Living in America with dual citizenship and Marrying a U.S. citizen

[immigrationamerican]

I am presently living in America and have both American and Canadian citizenship. We have decided we'd like to marry and move back to Canada. How does my living in America and my dual citizenship affect the process? Does it make the process easier and what would be the best way for me to get my spouse Canadian PR? Should we marry via American courts? Confused...

Should be straightforward. Marry in the US, do the Outland process.
God Luck

Is there any difference between marrying in U.S. verses Canadian courts law wise? Can we marry in Canada but do outland?

No difference.

If you have lived together continuously for at least one full year - then you don't even have to get married. You can sponsor as a common law partner.

makes no difference, not one better than the other, and yes, you can marry in Canada and do outland

OK, my partner said that marrying through US immigration or something might be an easier route to me getting PR. Guess it's not true.

I'm a US citizen, Wife is Canadian. We married in Canada and did outland without issue.
