In order to return to Canada, he needs to have either a valid PR card or valid PR Travel Document in hand. He won't be allowed to board a plane to Canada with just the eCOPR.
The exception would be if he's re-entering Canada from the US through a land border crossing.

I see you said there would be an exception re-entering though a land border crossing. I recently received my eCOPR but I don't believe I will have my PR card by next month when I am going to visit home then re enter back through a land crossing If I just show my eCOPR I shouldn't have a problem?

I literally did this today, and was through the border in two minutes. The officer's only comment was "oh cool this is only the second eCOPR I've seen. These are new with covid usually it would have been done in person."

What you quoted above only applies to scenarios where someone receives COPR outside of Canada and then travels to Canada to land and become a permanent resident for the first time.
In scenarios where someone is already a PR (i.e. has already gone through landing formalities and is waiting for their PR card), the COPR cannot be used to return to Canada. The person needs a valid PR card, valid PR travel document, or needs to re-enter Canada through a US/ Canada land border from the US.

Thank you very much for the quick reply.
Actually I'm in Canada but was a temporary resident. I'm applying for PR for the first time.
I applied to PR through TR2PR program and got the PR portal confirmation recently and now my photo and address under review by IRCC.
So even after receiving my ecopr, because I'm already in Canada, I can't reenter Canada with COPR only?
So if I want to get the PR travel document instead how long will it take on average? websites mentions just "varies"

That's right. You won't be able to use the COPR to return to Canada.
Best to have at least a couple of weeks (more is better) for the PRTD application. You can only apply once you are outside of Canada. The answer will also depend on which country you're applying from.
With ecopr you can reenter by a private vehicle or walking across the bridge only. It cannot be used on any commercial carrier (Airlines, Greyhound etc. However you may use a commercial carrier to leave Canada by land.
