Hi

Under NAFTA,You can come on over under the Labour Mobility rules Welcome to Canada

1.  Just because he is a US or Mexican citizen, he can waltz right in, he requires a job offer and his qualifications must meet the Chapt. 16

3 PROFESSIONALS
3.1 What requirements apply to professionals?
The following requirements apply:
• citizenship of the United States or Mexico;
• profession identified in Appendix 1603.D.1;
• qualification to work in that profession;
• pre-arranged employment with a Canadian employer;
• provision of professional level services in the field of qualification as indicated in the
Appendix; and
• compliance with existing immigration requirements for temporary entry.

There are 60 professions that fall under NAFTA http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/manuals/fw/fw01e.pdf  page 149

2.  If the OP is between 18 and 30 s/he can obtain a 6 months working holiday visa through SWAP.
