So, in Canada, adoption records are handled by the provinces, not the national archives. These records are usually kept private, so it might be tough to get access. If you’re trying to find out about your great-grandmother’s adoption, you’d need to reach out to the provincial archives or the government department that deals with adoptions. If you want to uncover any family connections, doing a DNA test through sites like 23andMe or Ancestry could be a good idea. You could also check old birth, marriage, or death records, or see if there are any mentions in local newspapers from back then.

It looks like this thread originally started with someone offering free baby formula for shipping costs, which was really kind of them. Then, the conversation shifted with people mentioning other topics, like how pediatricians often have free baby formula samples that they don't give out, and a few completely unrelated posts about spiritual help and lottery winnings. It's a bit of a mix of things, but the first post about the baby formula was definitely helpful for anyone who needed it at the time!
