The problem is if a person comes with a foreign passport and says they are living in Canada without a valid visa. At this point it looks like the person is trying to immigrate to Canada illegally.
I guess I misunderstood the original post. It only says that he has been travelling with Canadian passport, not that he currently resides in Canada (which a lot of dual citizens do even if they don't live in Canada).

When he said that he wants to travel at Christmas and "get back into Canada", I assumed he meant travel to Canada from where ever he is living now - which would make him a legitimate tourist. Even now when I read it, it isn't clear.

edit: Although "Calgary, AB" in his location should have been a give away I guess.
