Start with places where you previously lived, worked or had accounts. Official provincial and federal sources are often free to search.
SEARCH PLANNING MODE
Map where a public-record search may be worth your time.
ADAM Radar turns your own history into a search-priority map. Scores below are organizational priorities, not probabilities of finding money or estimates of value.

SEARCH NOTES
A priority score is only a way to organize the work.
Former employers, reimbursements and uncashed checks can be useful names to remember while searching.
Closed accounts or old service addresses can help explain where a small residual balance originated.
If your history spans many places, organization can matter more than any single search. Keep a record of what you checked.
TRANSPARENCY
What the radar does not do.
- It does not access government databases itself.
- It does not determine whether property belongs to you.
- It does not estimate an amount you will receive.
- It does not replace the official agency claim process.
