It's illegal to just sell the claws.
You would have to be gifted the claws or you will need to purchase the entire hide with claws attached.
There are synthetic claws made though so check out Halfords.

These are being sold in the US.

This necklace would be illegal to sell or buy in Alberta.
In this case, a person would most likely lose their purchase at customs.

This businesses' acquisition of the claws was also potentially illegal.

Regardless of the legalities involved, I think some things should be "earned" ourselves. I understand the gentleman is too probably old to hunt. Some things shouldn't be bought.
