The marriage is listed in the Drouin Collection at Ancestry (it's indexed with only surnames). There are a few difference in the entry compared to what you posted. The entry has Margaret Mary Godin listed and she signs her name Margaret Godin. Her mother is listed as Mary Helen. Wilbert's name is listed as Wilbert Cyrus Holt and his father is listed as Edward. Here is a copy of the entry.

I just noticed in the marriage entry that the groom is listed as Wilbert in the body of the text but he signed his name Wilbur.

I believe I have found an entry for the couple in the Canada Voters List from 1940 in Montreal. They are listed as Wilburd Holt, mechanic and Mrs. Marguerite Holt.

More spellings for their names. No wonder you are having difficulties finding them.

Not seeing an obituary in the Toronto papers.   

There is an ad in 1976 looking for salespersons who have a lot of experience in condominium sales to work for a large Canadian Developer.  The ad is place by Greenwin Developments, and the contact person is Barbara Harford... with a Toronto phone number.  So, Barbara was still in Toronto at that time (at least her work number was a Toronto number)
