SEDAR+ (CSA Public Filings — Canada)

sedarplus.ca

Official Canadian public‑filings system operated by the Canadian Securities Administrators (CSA). Public users can search issuer profiles and disclosure documents (financial statements, MD&A, prospectuses, material change reports, etc.), as well as CSA lists such as Reporting Issuers, Cease Trade Orders, and the Disciplined List. Advanced search supports ‘Document content’ full‑text queries. Search results can be exported to CSV; individual filings download as PDFs. Ticker lookup is not the primary key—use issuer/fund profile name or profile number.
