How to Look Up a Canadian Property Parcel for Free
A step-by-step way to find any Canadian parcel for free: pick the right provincial map, search by address or ID, and know when you have to pay.
You can see the shape and identifier of most Canadian land parcels for free. Ownership documents usually cost money. These steps work in any province or territory.
Step 1: Pick the right map
| Place | Free map | Watch for |
|---|---|---|
| BC | iMapBC | Add the ParcelMap BC layer |
| Alberta | ALRO Land Titles map | Copies cost a fee |
| Saskatchewan | Sask Interactive Mapping | Turn on Survey Parcel |
| Manitoba | MAO parcel map | Offline Mon 3:30–4:30 p.m. CT |
| Ontario | Toronto, Ottawa, London | No province-wide free map |
| Quebec | Infolot (free) | Tick the licence box first; French |
| New Brunswick | GeoNB | PLANET is paid |
| Nova Scotia | NSPRD parcel map | Property Online is paid |
| PEI | PEI parcel layer | GeoLinc Plus is paid |

| NWT | ATLAS | Shows tenure too |
| Nunavut | CLSS Map Browser | Surveys only |
Step 2: Search by what you have
- An address: most viewers have an address search box.
- A number from a tax or assessment notice: a roll number, ARN or PID often finds the parcel directly.
- A rural legal description: in the Prairies, zoom to the township and range, then find the section.
Step 3: Turn on the parcel layer and click
Some maps hide lot lines until you zoom in or switch on a layer. Click the parcel and write down its identifier. Our Canadian parcel ID guide explains what each kind of number means.
Step 4: Decide whether you need to pay
A free map is enough to check the lot shape, the location and the parcel number. Ownership, mortgages, easements and registered plans come from the provincial registry, which usually charges a fee.
Step 5: Don't measure off the map
Online parcel lines are not a survey. For anything with legal or money stakes, get the registered plan or hire a land surveyor licensed in that province.
