Yes. It doesn't take much magic to fool a form processor to make the domain go through. However all domains are spot checked after they are registered. Most likely the new registrar has already been notified and asked to clarify this with the registrant.
They'll need to show actual proof of their CPR in this case. However you can as a good citizen launch a complaint or a 'CPR Challange' with CIRA which starts a process to clear up the matter. In the end the domain gets dropped if they don't meet CPR. You can email [EMAIL PROTECTED] to do so.
