AFTER 1865
with many thanks to eillo for this wonderful list 
Happy hunting.
The National Archives of Canada (NAC) holds immigration
records from 1865 to 1935. Unfortunately the records
before 1925 are not indexed. To find a passenger you will
need to know an exact date of arrival.
There is no easy way to search Canadian arrival records for
the unindexed period other than reading microfilm. Ships
are on the reel, in order of arrival. You can find the
details at this URL
http://www.archives.ca/02/020202_e.html
If you want to order filmed passenger lists (remember they
aren't indexed!), a list of NAC microfilm numbers for
passenger lists to Canada 1865-1922 can be found at
http://olivetreegenealogy.com/ships/filmnos_can1865.shtml
If you are patient, you will soon (?) be able to search
these unindexed years! Library and Archives Canada plans to
digitize passenger lists for 1865 to 1935 as part of their
new Moving Here, Staying Here online exhibition at
http://www.collectionscanada.ca/immigrants/index-e.html

Just thought I would share. Someone kindly did a look up for me on Find My Past website. From this, I then had a ship name, departure date, destination. With this info I then did a search of the un-indexed years for arrival in Canada and was able to locate the appropriate image very quickly for the arrival of the ship. I then only had to trawl through a few pages to find the entry I wanted.
