The law firm where I work is quite small and doesn't actually have a Westlaw/Lexus subscription.... perhaps I will contact a friend of mine who does.

Thanks for the tip.
To save your time, no it doesn't. Criminal records are administered much differently in Canada versus the U.S. To my knowledge, none of Westlaw/Lexis/Quicklaw/eCarswell have functionality to locate criminal records.

Of course I wasn't aware of any online services that did it. I thought all requests for criminal recor checks had to be submitted through the local police station or RCMP detachment, but it seems like that's what the online sites are doing anyway.
