Yes, your Canadian friend needs a visa. He or she can obtain it easily at any Myanmar embassy. The embassy in Bangkok is quite popular for this.

A tourist visa might be the right type, depending on what your friend intends to visit the country for.

I believe what you get is a border pass which will allow you to stay within a number of kilometers from the border check-point, not a visa with which you can travel freely within Myanmar (for example to Yangon). Kindly check.
