One way to easily purchase an unregistered seedling that you can name and register with AHS is the Daylily Auction (called the Lily Auction or LS) first go to
http://www.daylily.com/cgi-bin...
Scroll down a bit and you will currently see five sellers who picture a seedling they are selling, and detail information about it, also noting that you will receive all of the existing fans and can get permission to register it (sellers are Redcajun, Westend, Jim_t, William, and our own dear Spunky1). Be sure to only look at those items that say "ALL" and inside that say you can get paperwork from them to register (permission granted to you - the other seedlings that say "DF" or "6fans" or "3 Fans + Increase" are not ones you can register - they are just unregistered daylilies you can buy as a seedling). If they don't clearly say ALL fans and permission or forms will be provided, check with them through the site first - or you may end up with a daylily that they decide they don't want registered at all. Prices for the registerable ones range from about $20-50 plush shipping, and there are some very pretty ones listed.
There are also some sellers who do list their seedlings on their own sites, but I don't have an easy way to help you with that - it's a lot of google searching, and I've never seen any as nice as the ones on the LA, and usually when I happen upon one at a site, they are in the $50-75 dollar range. Right now there are so many nice ones, and reasonably priced, on the LA - usually there are none or just a few - so it looks like you are searching for that special daylily seedling at just the right time.
Let me know if I misunderstood and that you want to try to contact the Canadian growers - I'm assuming not as it would likely be a lot of work and expense, but if I'm wrong, I'll be happy to supply those.
Good luck if you bid on an auction item in order to pursue Bailey (something) or (something) Bailey!
