My flight Saudi Airline was from Lahore to Toronto Via Jeddah. My layover was at Jeddah for eight HOURS Saudi don't give transit VISA in my case they didn't. If you are traveling on Emirate then you can apply for transit visa online.

As long as you have change airplanes of SAME (KLM) airline and had boarding pass it will be ok. No need of transit Visa.
Guyz European countries and Middle Eastern countries have totally different rules so don't try to apply one sides rules to the other, Best is ask the airline you are travelling by and gather first hand info.

Here is another link form Netherlands Mission in United Arab Emirates
http://uae.nlembassy.org/shared/products-and-services/products-and-services/schengen-visa/airport-transit-visa/airport-transit-visa.html

You do not require a Schengen airport transit visa, if you:

Hold a valid visa or residence permit issued by a Schengen state.
Hold a visa valid for a member state of the European Union or the European Economic Area, Canada, Japan or the United States.
Hold a valid residence permit issued by a member state of the European Union or the European Economic Area.
Hold a residence permit issued by the Principality of Andorra, Canada, Japan, the Republic of San Marino, or the United States, that guarantees unrestricted right of return.
Are a family member of a citizen of the European Union, the European Economic Area or Switzerland.
Hold a diplomatic passport.
Are on-duty aircrew and a national of a country that is a party to the Chicago Convention on International Civil Aviation.

Best option is to call Airlines it self.

There are three offices (ISB, LHR and KHI) he can go to any one of the nearest one, but yes he has to personally submit PP there.
He will probably go to the ISB one just to be safe. Thanks :)
how long will it take after this stage? Can he just book the ticket then?

Canada Visa Application Centre

G-9 Markaz, Islamabad


Lahore:
Address
Canada Visa Application Centre
20 Ex American Centre Building,
Opposite Ganga Ram Hospital,
Queens Road, Lahore


SO if he went to either one of these addreses he could get the visa stamped?

He will have to drop his visa at either of these locations. They are just the delivery/courier people who will send the Passport to Islamabad High Commission of Canada. He can go to either Lahore or Islamabad, to drop off his passport, he will have to go back to pick it up when you get an e-mail saying that the passport is released.

OK so it's about 1 week process ... so if he goes Tuesday he should be done everything within 1-2 weeks due to Christmas delays
If he goes to Lahore office and submits everything will they email him and he can pick it up from same Lahore office with stamped visa.
