Unfortunately the records before 1925 are not indexed. To
find a passenger you will need to know an exact date of
arrival.

There is no easy way to search Canadian arrival records
for
this unindexed period other than reading microfilm

The National Archives of Canada (NAC) holds immigration
records from 1865 to 1935.

Ships are on the reel, in order of arrival. You can find
the details at this URL

If you want to order filmed passenger lists (remember they
aren't indexed!), a list of NAC microfilm numbers for
passenger lists to Canada 1865-1922 can be found at

http://olivetreegenealogy.com/ships/filmnos_can1865.shtml

If you want to try your luck searching transcribed ships
passenger lists online, passenger lists for Ships to
Canada after 1865 are freely available at

http://olivetreegenealogy.com/ships/tocanp05.shtml

You can also try TheShipsList.com at
http://www.theshipslist.com/ They have been indexing
arrivals from Newspapers and have many passenger lists
online

There are search engines to search online free databases
on
multiple websites for ships to Canada at

http://olivetreegenealogy.com/ships/search_shipscanada.shtml

The Ontario Archives has just put a new database online -
an index to the assisted immigration registers created by
the Toronto Emigrant Office between 1865 and 1883.

The registers are a chronological listing of those new
immigrants who were assisted by the government to travel
to
many different destinations across southern Ontario. Over
29,000 entries have been transcribed from the registers.

Good luck!
