It can be established by questioning. If she didn't have her Passport on her or her work permit the officer could ask clarifying questions such as. When did you come to Canada? What port did you enter at? Did you talk to an officer? Where you stamped in? If you have a work permit, when is it Valid for? If she can answer all those questions with everything making sense than he probably could assume that she is in Canada legally. If she gives the officer a run around than he is going to want to make some phone calls.
