If she applied for and been granted Canadian citizenship then she is still a
citizen.
But if she lived in Canada as Permanent Resident (landed immigrant) only and
never applied for not been granted Canadian citizenship then her PR status
is now gone and must apply for Canadian PR visa if she wants to move back to
Canada. The only way for her PR status not to be gone is if she was all
those 6 years outside Canada accompanying her spouse who is a Canadian
citizen.
