How to Search Canadian Property Public Records (Start Here)

People waste hours searching the wrong database. Canadian Property public records are spread across multiple government offices - each maintains its own system independently.

Don't guess which system to use. Use the databases listed below. Each one links directly to an official Canadian Property government portal.

  • Court & criminal records: Search the Canadian Property court and justice system databases listed below.
  • Property & land records: Search the Canadian Property land registry or property office databases.
  • Business & company records: Search the Canadian Property company registry for corporate filings.
  • Vital records: Search the Canadian Property civil registration office for birth, death, and marriage records.
⚠ Key Fact: There is no single database for all Canadian Property records. Each office maintains its own records separately.

About This Page

Canadian real-property title and land-registration systems are administered provincially, not federally. Each province operates its own land-titles or land-registry office, and some use electronic platforms (such as Teranet for Ontario and BC). This page collects the official provincial land-registry portals along with major supporting databases.

Most provincial land-title searches involve per-search fees; property assessment rolls and some municipal data may be freely viewable.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I search Ontario land titles online?

Ontario land-title searches are conducted through Teraview, Teranet's authorised electronic platform. A subscription or per-search fee applies.

Is there a free way to check Canadian property ownership?

Some municipal assessment rolls (e.g., BC Assessment for British Columbia) publish property-level records for free; however, registered title searches require a paid provincial-registry search.
