You would have to get a new LMO for the new job before getting a new work permit.

You can stay in Canada till your work permit expires and hopefully you can find another job before that.

How will you deal with the visa that expires in March?

The visa is only good when you come inside Canada, so if he doesn't leave Canada and his work permit is still valid, he can stay as long as the work permit is not expired, even if he is not working at his job anymore. There is also a 90 day restoration if he exceeds his stay in Canada after the work permit expires.
