No instrument rating is required to get a SVFR clearance during the day.
You only
need an IFR rating to do SVFR at night, when the regs say the aircraft
must be
equipped for instrument flight and the pilot must be instrument qualified.

In Canada, you can get SVFR at night for the purpose of landing only. A
night rating is all that's required.

It wouldn't matter. The pilot under discussion here doesn't have an
instrument
rating, so he can't get an SVFR clearance anyway.
