There's a government department just for you! (hey, it's Canada, we have
a department for everything!). I know the local office sells business
licences as well as dealing with the name issue. I also checked out
the local public library and scanned all the phone directories in North
America with keywords. Took about 10 minutes with modern technology!
Take a look in the blue pages (govt.) for anything to do with
business and give them a call. They helped me a lot (although they
don't give me any business ;-).
