I don't know if you are talking abut a possibility or an event that has already occurred. As long as the widowed husband is eligible for PNP or is within the cutoff for Express entry, then they will get PR. I don't see how widowed status would affect this case, you may gain or lose some points in express entry due to your martial status. An unemployed person with a visitor visa would probably have to return to their home country and apply for PR from there.

No - he would not. There are no benefits to having a Canadian citizen baby. The baby will get citizenship if born in Canada. If the husband wants a work permit or PR, he will have to qualify on his own just like anyone else.

Canadian citizenship would only affect the baby, not the husband. There is only one way for PR for the husband, and that is to apply to PNP or Express entry.
