Wrong Information on CoPR

I've received my passport and my CoPR, however I noticed my marital status is wrong, as well as last entry and original entry dates. City of destination is also wrong although I'm not worried about that. I understand you can mail a copy of your CoPR to the Operation Support Centre in Ottawa in order for them to amend it, but should I do it before or after I land? Should I also mail my passport (I'm from a visa required country but there's no wrong information on the visa). Any input is appreciated.

Edit: I have just checked the processing time for amending immigration documents and it seems the current wait time is 6 months, I cannot wait that long to land as I'm already in Canada and my status would have expired if I were to wait this long to flagpole. Have any of you successfully amended errors AFTER landing?
