Do I need to enter my non-resident spouse's foreign income?

Hi!

I sponsored my husband last year and he is landing in Canada on May. So he has never worked or lived in Canada before.
I am now filling out my Tax Return and I wonder if I need to enter his foreign income in the field for spouse's income? Should I just enter 0? (The wizard doesn't let me click on "Next" before I enter some number into this field).

Thanks!

My wife didn't have to enter my US earnings this year or last, since I didn't live or work in Canada either of those tax years. I didn't have to enter hers on my US taxes for the same reason.
