Here are the search resources for Canada as posted by thesearchguru. Best of Luck to you! :) Canadian Searching Resources Searching Resources in Canada: Excellent website: [url]http://nebula.on.ca/canadopt/index.htm[/url] Non-profit volunteer organization in Canada to help with searches: Parent Finders of Canada Joan Vanstone will answer searching questions for Canada: jvanstone@dccnet.com Website: [url]http://www.parentfinders.org/[/url] Phone: 604-926-1096 Another helpful website: [url]http://www.canadianadopteesregistry.org[/url] Information on Quebec searches (from adoptee Terry who found his birth family): "The search tool that works best is this quasi official agency called CENTRE JEUNESSE de QUEBECThe director is Marie-Paul Mastoumecq she does not speak good English. The person to ask for is:Ellen Gagon phone number: 418-661-6951 fax: 418-661-2845 address: 2951, avenue DU bourg-Royal, Bueaport Quebec G1c3s2(all you need is your name, date of birth, adopted parents name and city of birth)I believe they can find your file with names and date of birth only. You should ask for all information available in your file to be sent to you, They will send all they can. I got my non- ID in three weeks. Along with non-ID are forms for them to do a search for you. The search costs around $500 (American)... payable in three stages. I highly recommend this if a search is necessary. If the person you are looking for has also been in contact with their office that is an instant mach. In those cases they give you names and addresses of the person you are looking for.Anyway I sent in the $180 (American) for the first stage and they found b-mom in three weeks it seems to move very fast.This seems to be the only location that has centralized the adoption files from the Quebec Province.Up until recently it was the local churches that keep all birth/marriage and adoption records thus making searching Quebec very difficult. ŔFor free searches I don't know but scanning the many boards in French has improved my French but that is about it." Here is some information for searching in Ontario, Canada. I hope you find the information helpful in your search: Registry Adoptions and Operational Services Ministry of Community and Social Services Adoption Information Unit 2 Floor St. West, 24th Floor Toronto, Ontario Canada, M4W 3H8 Adoption Disclosure Register Clerk: (416) 327-4730 International Adoptions: (416) 327-4739 Relative Adoptions: (416) 327-4740 Private Adoptions: (416) 327-4741 I would recommend that you register with the Adoption Disclosure Unit in Toronto. Their search services are free. If the person you are looking for is already registered then a match will be made very quicklyԅif not then you can have them do a search for you.

Thank you........ I have already registered and searched those site. But again thank you for your help

Hi, As the birthfather, you may be entitled to register with the Saskatchewan Government to receive what is considered non-identifying information regarding your birth daughter. This is the first step that should be taken when interested in searching for birth family. Check out this web page [url]http://www.dcre.gov.sk.ca/services/famyouth/Adoption/ado6.html[/url] When registering with them, request that you wish to be informed of her birth date, although I am not sure if they will disclose it or not, but you could ask. Hope this helps. ~Shannon

Thank you very much Shannon, I shall try that.......... no harm in trying.
