Step 1
Look for the individual's name in your provincial phone book if the person you are seeking to contact via cell phone lives in your province. Such phone books are delivered to your home for free by your local telephone service provider (like Rogers or Telus). With the increased usage of cell phones, many individuals choose to list their cell phone number in these Canadian phone books.

Step 2
Find a cell phone number on the online Canada411 database (link in the Resources section). Canada411 lists public cell phone numbers from the customers of Canada's largest cell phone service providers, including Fido and Bell. Canada's federal privacy regulations require you to know the individual's first and last name, as well as a postal code or city name, before you can try to find a cell phone number on the Canada411 database.

Step 3
Search for the individual on a search engine such as Yahoo! or Google. Include the individual's name within quotation marks, and include "cell phone" within the search. This may give you any online listings that may contain their cell phone number. This may be a time-effective method of research in this modern age of the Internet.

Step 4
Obtain the services of a licensed, Canadian private investigator to find a cell phone number in Canada. A Canadian private investigator can help you find a cell phone number that is not easily obtained through traditional, public methods of research. A reputable private investigator that is licensed to work in your specific province may be found through the Canadian Private Investigators' Resource Center's membership list (link in the Resources section).
