Help needed

My husband went to Canada on a closed work permit to work work within a Trucking company.
Unfortunately just after two weeks the manager told him that he can no longer work with them bcaz he failed the rules of the road test twice.
And he should seek on the road training and get his licence and he could comeback to the company after he gets experience with another company.
He went ahead and proceed with the rules of the road driver's license test and the airbrake test and he passed them however the last test which is the pre trip inspection test he didnt get to do bcaz he didn't had a company vehicle and he got one to use but was told by the examiner at the depot that he would have to get a new Lmia before he can do the test and get the license.

If his permit is no longer valid can he flagpole when he gets a new LMIA?

Does he really have to get a new LMIA before he can get the Driver's license test done?

Can he get a open work permit?

Any suggestions of companies with LMIA?
He's a well experienced Tractor-trailer Driver over 20 yrs.

Is there any agency he could go to get help within that region. Someone told him about the new comers association, that they can help him with a job but when he contacted them thay say theres no LMIA at this time.

Assume he isn’t from a visa exempt country. If so, flagpole is not an option he must apply for a work permit.
