All Canadian communities AFAIK have access to a provincial library system where they can order paper books sent to them. Remote communities usually have a longer borrowing time limit.

Ebooks they generally have the same access as any other community but not always. Yukon has less ebooks but Yukon residents can get a BC library card and I believe NWT and Nunavut residents can use Alberta library system.

You could also try and get a card for him from your local library or ask your librarian if it would be okay if he used yours.

Growing up in rural Alberta I was able to get 8 books a month mailed to me by the extension library of the University of Alberta. I would choose categories I was interested in and the library would choose books based on my preferences and mail them to me. When I was done reading the books, I would send them back and await a new shipment. Normally, I would find 5-6 books from each batch that piqued my interest.
