I'm guessing he might find it more difficult these days, as they've
tightened all this stuff up now post sept 11. Though I think it might still
be the case that as long as he has the proper Proof of Citizenship ID
(usually something like a birth certificate + other stuff) he may be okay.

But I would check for up to date info

See if he can get hold of someone at the Canadian Embassy:
http://www.canadianembassy.org/

or the nearest consulate

(I looked at a couple of other sites, such as VIA Rail and so on, and they
still seemed to say the proof of citizenship route was okay).
