Yes - this will cause issues. He won't qualify for skilled worker immigration given his age.

No - you cannot apply for a super visa while living outside of Canada. You must be living in Canada and your income must be from Canadian sources to qualify to apply for a super visa.

There's no option that will allow you to do that.

Their only option is a regular visitor visa. However this won't allow them to live in Canada or move to Canada. All this will do is allow them to visit Canada for a short period of time.
