Hi Deb,

Unfortunately, Canadian records are not really *indexed* until 1919 --> so
it is a matter of reading microfilm. By 1902, this can be quite a few (not
nearly as bad as New York though <grin>).

Quebec:
T-480 1901 June 29 1902 Aug. 23
T-481 1902 Aug. 25 1903 July 28
Halifax:
T-495 1901 Apr. 14 1902 Apr. 21
T-496 1902 Apr. 21 1903 Apr. 3

The passenger manifest is on Microfilm at the National Archives of Canada
[NAC], in Ottawa. The Ships are placed on the reel, in order of arrival.
You can borrow this reel on an Inter Library Loan [ILL]. You can find the
details for this procedure at this NAC Genealogy Research URL
http://www.archives.ca/exec/naweb.dll?fs&020202&e&top&0
You are also able to ILL from Ottawa, to libraries in the US, and outside
North America. These microfilms contain arrivals from ALL ports, they are
not indexed. The LDS do not currently have copies of the post-1900 Canadian
arrivals.

Good Luck,

Sue
