She needs at least a transit visa since she is not eligible for the above.

Only if she never leaves the airport and has a ticket for a continuing flight to the USA with same day departure

I disagree with both. She needs a visitor visa imo. Meeting her fiance in Canada and driving to US is not technically considered transiting. For Canada immigration, she is literally visiting Canada.

we got a transit visa for Adil  and didn't know he did not need it 

he bought his mom here on a tourist visa and she did not have the transit visa and she went thru customs and immigration in montreal and there flew onto Atlanta

This is all a moot point anyway as the OP had already said he is ditching the idea and is flying her into Seattle

More than likely gotta shell out $200 for roundtrip airfare from their province, or take a bus or a roro and spend days trying to get there.

Unknown where she lives. She could live close to either Manila or Cebu: https://www.vfsglobal.ca/canada/Philippines/

It would be silly for most to get a visa for Canada first to enter the USA

If a multi-entry Canadian tourist visa is issued then she could also use it later in the period of approved Advance Parole but still pending AOS.

Correct payxibka. We don't want any maybe's. It would have been a non-stop to Vancouver. 

But when dealing with immigration and different countries, it's probably best not to take any chances.

So she will fly into Seattle. USA. And THAT will be her point of entry!

Thanks everybody, for your comments and advice. 🙂
