No, if you file an Outland Spousal Application, the American can still travel to Canada as a visitor.
Also, if you happen to be visiting Canada, or the Canadian is already living in Canada, you can still file an Outland application for the american spouse, and it sounds like it would be to your benefit to do so for the reasons mentioned above. Also, there might be an interview process, and the american would have to travel to the Canadian embassy nearest to his/her US address. This can complicate the logistics of when and where you want to apply from
