Hi Amanda

Unfortunatley Quebec did not start civil registration until 1994 I think, so you need to know where and what church they married in.

Luckily, Canadian censuses give you what denomination they were:

In 1911, they were at:
Home / 1911 / Quebec / Hochelaga / 13 St. Gabriel / page 12

Joseph was born in England, arrived in 1895, and the family were Anglican.  First child born 1908 but no month given.

In 1901 Joseph was a lodger, the census details are:
District:   QU MONTRÉAL (City/Cité)/175 (#175)
Subdistrict:     Saint-Antoine (Ward/Quartier) A-33 Page 3

(you can look at the indexes etc at www.automatedgenealogy.com)

http://mesaieux.com/an/default.htm - if you go here and search under surnames for 'Thyer', there is a mention of a marriage of a Joseph Thyer and Mary Mcpherson, no details given other than 'before 1921'.  In 1911 Mary Ann's birthdate is given as May 1888 in Quebec, and she is of Scottish ancestry.  There ARE McPhersons in the same area as the Thyer family in 1911. (it appears that if you sign up for this database - seems to be free - then there might be more info).
