Most countries have strict laws preventing people's medical records from the public. You especially will not find a comprehensive list of everyone in Canada who has had a heart transplant. If a family member or other loved one donated their organs- you can request through the hospital where they died to be put in contact with a group who organizes meetings between donors and recipients.
