Yes, he has to list them as non accompanying. Doesn't list them? It is called misrepresentation.

And not only that, he cant sponsor them in future (if his current situation with children change) if he doesn't list them.
Important
"You must list all family members in your application for permanent residence, whether they are accompanying you to Canada or not. You must also provide details on family members whose location is unknown (including those missing or presumed dead). If you don‘t, you will not be able to sponsor family members at a later date if they are not listed on your application"
Check the guide (Check the note on Dependants under Language Detail).
