Well, I got my PR card, I am yet to enter my Canada. But hope to land 'very soon' to validate my PR status. How can I take my parents to Canada?
If I get get divorced, will I be eligible for the entrance?
 
What the what? You can't get your PR card without being inside Canada.

If you mean you got your visa, then you need to land, then you can sponsor your family on the Family Class.

If you divorce within two years, you'll be thrown out.

Effective October 25, 2012, sponsored spouses or partners must now live together in a legitimate relationship with their sponsor for two years from the day they receive permanent residence status in Canada.

The new regulations apply to spouses or partners in a relationship of two years or less and who have no children in common with their sponsor at the time they submit their sponsorship application.
 
To answer your second question, you can't take your parents with you.

Your parents can visit on a visa or super visa if they are approved.
 
Like others have said, after you land as a PR, you must stay with your spouse for at least 2 years or you could lose your PR. The only exception is if your spouse is abusive to you.

Your parents can apply for a visit visa to visit you. Once you have worked for a while and can show that you can support your parents, you could apply for a super visa for them. This visa would allow them to visit for up to 2 years at a time.

You may be able to sponsor your parents for PR at some point. Immigration had put these applications on hold but they are due to open again soon, see http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/sponsor/relatives.asp You would again have to prove that you have enough income to support yourself and your parents financially. Your spouse can co-sign for you.
