People finding is a pain, but there is a resource page to help.  The BC Securities Commission has put together a background research toolkit on their website and it highlights a couple of sources.

In addition, InfoUSA provides a good directory of phone numbers and addresses for Canada. I know that you can access it through Choicepoint and public libraries might also have subscriptions directly (or at least many do here in Canada.)

From the toolkit home page:

The information in this toolkit can be used for a variety of tasks, including hiring new employees in the securities industry, vetting firm management, and conducting “know your client” compliance activities.

In case you missed it in the regular news, CBC reports the "UN world digital library goes live online"http://www.cbc.ca/arts/media/story/2009/04/21/world-digital-library.html .  It aims to "...provide a one-stop shop for researchers, teachers and schoolchildren seeking to find items on one topic together in one place [and] ...It brings together cultural heritage that's scattered around the world..." It doesn't necessarily have anything to do with law but it is entirely far too interesting nonetheless.
