Hi Andrew
Irby is correct - unfortunately.

The data is available in the US because, with the competition, some data providers are willing to part with it in return for the prestige and recognition of providing the service to someone.

There are relatively few data providers in Canada, so there is not the same incentive to take the plunge and get the goodwill.

Our site has the ability to do all the searching, but we can't get the data. A number of firms that have the data have offered it to us, but we would have to win the lottery first to be able to afford it.
