Then, since neither of you are strapped for cash, it will come down to personal choice.  You love the US.  But do you love her more?

 

If she doesn't want to live here and doesn't even like the US, then the choice is obvious.  Move back.  You're not reliant upon her and, by your own comments, you have more than enough to sustain yourself financially.

She said, "I just do not like the country." 

You say, "Besides, I do not know what she is up to."  

Also, the thing that made you start to think of remarrying her is that "She appeared younger and more desirable".  

It seems to me that it would be a good idea, for both of you, to take this slowly in order to get to know each other again and to really understand what each of you wants.

I will assume the gist of the question is How Will It Look to USCIS? Or even, Will They Look at the case any differently? 
 

In that respect, I believe they will vet for inconsistencies ( given country of origin ) the same for a government clearance employee as for a 7-11 worker.

 

The optics are the same. …

In addition, if she was an addict you might require a waiver for her depending on what type of addiction she had.

This is a good point. At best she's probably get the 1 year ban once the addiction history is discovered at the medical. So OP would not be looking at a quick way for her to come here.

 

If she doesn't want to live in the US, I'm not sure she'd want to go through the whole immigration process (especially given she'll be treated with more scrutiny because of the addiction issues.) So that's just another barrier to the already complex situation here.

I would not rekindle a relationship with someone who isn’t interested in moving to the US. In addition, if she was an addict you might require a waiver for her depending on what type of addiction she had. Especially if her addiction is the reason you decided to separate. USCIS might assume this was all a long term plan: divorce, obtain US citizenship and then bring your entire family to the US so you can all become US citizens and reunite. 
USCIS might want you to supply your wife’s entire mental health history and her journey to a better state. If she is not even interested in moving to the US why go through such a big ordeal. Maybe just sponsor your children and obtain their US citizenship. Then date your wife long distance.  You’ve only been single for 2 years, no need to rush things. 

 

I was wondering how she got into Canada?

I cannot quit my job and depend on a woman.

Even one with a "prestigious job"?  

 

Jeez.

 

Honestly, sounds like you're looking for a babysitter for your kids.  Good luck, I'm out.
