it's my understandind that if he is a contractor permits do not apply. Payments to him are a business expense for your tax purposes. He is responsible foor reporting his income. What I am not sure of is whether there is some equivalent to the 1099 for where you report payments to contractors to Revenue Canada. I'd try their website on this.
Whether you pay him in Canadian or American funds would normally be a matter of agreement between you. In my opinion you are somewhat better paying him in American funds; that way any fluctuation is on his side.
