The commemorative issues are the issues usually in smaller sets that commemorate something of someone for example trains people historical things. The definitive sets are items at are much larger sets and are used for postage and have many more values. Note that both can be used for postage.

If you want to see all the commemorative stamps, you need to consult a catalogue because there are thousands of stamps, far to many to list here. Collections Canada maintains a website that shows all Canadian stamps issued. If you don't have access to an up to date catalogue, you could go there.
