Answer I can't be too sure on how legal it is as you are Canadian and you married out of the country. I'd contact Immigration Canada to find out how legal your marrige is. * You can be married outside of Canada and be legally recognized as married in Canada. You simply need to show the marriage certificate. The marriage certificate is less important than it used to be for legal reasons, however. What is more important is the duration that a couple cohabitates (lives together).
No. You have to get the prior marriage dissolved first. The later married is void.
Yes, legal marriage in Canada is recognized in the United States. Before gay marriage was acceptable in the US, many people went to Canada to get married.
Yes, but it does not confirm citzenship or travel rights to a non-resident of Canada.
To get married in Canada as a U.S. citizen, you typically need a valid passport, birth certificate, and proof of single status. You may also need to apply for a marriage license in the province where you plan to marry. Additionally, some provinces may require a waiting period before the marriage can take place. It's important to check with the specific province's marriage regulations for detailed requirements and procedures.

The US does recognize marriages conducted in other countries. The marriage does have to be legal in Canada for it to be legal in the US. And copies of the certificate should be kept available for legal validation.
If you both have lived in Mexico, got married then you would immigrate to Canada as husband and wife and it is legal in Canada.

Of course not. In order to get married in California, they would have to lie on their marriage license application which will invalidate the license and make the marriage illegal.
Yes, a legal marriage in any country is recognized as a legal marriage in the US. You cannot legally get married in the US if you are already married in another country. What you can do is file the marriage document in the County office. Addendum: It should be noted that, under DOMA, only marriages between one person who is legally female and one who is legally male will be recognized. The rest of us are still waiting for reciprocity.
Check the reciprocity laws between Canada and the USA. I am sure the Canadian marriage will be recognized in the USA. If one party is already married, that party would be committing bigotry if a second marriage happens while the first marriage is still legally recognized,
