I am a canadian citizen. My sister from pakistan is in USA on a 5 years multiple visit visa. She want to see me, Is she eligible to apply for a visitor (temporary resident) visa for Canada from USA. thanks a million.

Yes She has a very good chance of getting a TRV..
Fill out the APPLICATION FORM CORRECTLY.
If she has a RETURN TICKET FROM THE US to PAKISTAN, then, a COPY of the ticket.
Specify How long she is going to stay and tell them that she will leave when the visit is over.
Insurance coverage while she stays with you. Just for the duration. Say, Two Months.
Copy of the 5Yr U.S.Visa page in the Passport

When an immigration officer is processing her visa application, all of them actually have one big question in their mind, “Will this applicant go back to their home country after they’ve finished their visit to Canada?” This will be our main concern especially if the applicant is from a developing or underdeveloped country, like Pakistan, because many of the visitors from those countries don’t go back

Canadian Visitor Visa: How to Improve her Application
So how do you convince the officer that you are a true visitor who will play by the rules? There are several factors that may help you to succeed. The first factor will be to show you have a strong establishment in your country. This includes your employment stability, any school attendance if that’s applicable to you, and assets you own, and marital status, children and family, and any other responsibilities that require your return to your home country. The more you show the better chance you will have to convince the officer.

The second factor will be to be clear of your reason of her visit. You have to specify why she is visiting the country. Whether it’s a family celebration or family emergency or work related matter or pleasure visit, you have to make your reason clear. You can include your accommodation arrangement, invitation letter, and documents such as arranged registration to validate your Sister.

Rule of thumb, try to include as much proof as possible. The factor three will be your financial arrangement. If there is no proof of sufficient funds for her visit,unfortunately her application is likely to get refused. Therefore, you should show sufficient funds available for her trip, no matter who’s covering the cost.

Now, once she comes in to Canada, if she decide to stay longer there may be options. Consult with an immigration professional for help. I hope your application is successful and your Sisters visit is enjoyable.

Below we have provided a list to sum up the positive and negative aspects in assessing an application:

Positive Factors:
The following factors are positive aspects in assessing an application:

citizen in his/her country of usual residence;
country of usual residence is politically stable;
stable, well-paid employment (proof is required in the form of a letter from the employer stating salary, position, date when employment commenced and vacation granted);
spouse and/or children not accompanying applicant;
owner of a substantial business (registration of business and, if necessary, financial statements);
good financial situation (as proved by bank statements);
previous trips to Canada;
previous trips to countries as attractive to illegals as Canada (United States, France, United Kingdom, etc.);
property in country of usual residence;
host (particularly in family visit cases) with legal status in Canada (citizen, permanent resident, student with student authorization, etc.)
Negative Factors
The following factors are negative aspects in assessing an application:

The Host remained in Canada on visitor visa or student authorization or entered illegally (based on record of landing or previous files) — experience shows that where the host has already abused the system, it is highly likely that his/her guests will do the same;
unmarried (particularly if young and chances of successful establishment in country of usual residence are poor);
poor financial situation;
poorly paid employment, or unemployed;
host is a friend or distant family member with whom the applicant has had little contact;
no previous travel abroad;
has previously been denied a visitor visa (or student or employment authorization);
has been denied a visa by another country;
owns no property;
wants to visit his/her fiance’ or spouse who is residing in Canada;
listed in FOSS (national immigration database containing entries on all applicants who have violated the Act or regarding whom a report has been written)

Good Luck.

Thanks once again for such a detailed reply. Now I am trying to submit an application online but two documents which are pdf format do not open/download {Application for Visitor Visa (Temporary Resident Visa) Made Outside of Canada (IMM5257) and Family Information (IMM5645)} while use of Representative (IMM5476) also a pdf file can be opened. Can I buy these printed documents from somewhere. I have searched these files on google too so that I can download these from some other source but failed. Without these documents application can't be submitted.
You told about insurance too, should we get her health insurance and give a copy of it with the application.
I also don't understand what is document arranged registration.

When you get a tentative policy for your travel and the insurace, it indicates your genuineness and the coverage that she will have after she lands here in Canada from the moment of landing, Either by Road Sea or Air.

Hope this Helps.
