He will need to stay within Canada, he cannot cross the US border. he will land in trouble if he does.

I got my passport back today.

The visa stamp expiry date is 5 month form today. My passport is valid till 2019. What does that visa stamp imply?

You need to do a landing process before this Visa expires. You will become a permanent resident post landing.

No, they will put a date stamp and signature on your COPR and apply for your PR Card. The visa on your passport is only for a single entry, it will be of no use after landing.

The link is a little old, so you can do some more research on the forum to find latest stuff, but it will give you an idea.

Hi Guys. I have got my PR a couple of months ago and did my landing in may and then came back to my home country in a week. My PR card were mailed to the address provided (family member) and my family member brought it to my home country in-person (so nice of him to do that). Now I am confused if I can travel using the PR card or using COPR (I am in US so can travel by land as well)? If I travel using PR card and if the immigration officer cross verify the dates on my passport then wouldn't they question me on how I got my PR card while I was outside canada? Has anyone done something similar? Please advise.
