Driving for dollars in Canada

Just got our 4th offer rejected, been looking for a duplex for months here in Atlantic Canada. The property we just lost out on we offered $39k over ask and we were 5th out of 6 offers. I'm channeling the frustration into motivation, and I'm going to start driving for dollars.

Question is, I know there are a lot of tools out there for the US market that show addresses, homeowner info, rent estimates, etc, but I haven't been able to find anything for the Canadian market? Is there anything similar to the Driving For Dollars app that works here?\

@Ryan Kucey our privacy laws are much stronger. There are some lists that exist in Canada, but they don't have any of the useful information like there is in the US such as equity percentage, delinquent taxes, etc.
You typically can get the owner's mailing address from a house even if they don't live there by going to city hall and looking at the tax rolls, it works in Ontario but not sure about Atlantic Canada.
