A good place to start is Geogratis at
http://geogratis.cgdi.gc.ca/CLI/frames.html
A description of Geogratis can be found here

If you want more detailed data try the provincial government for the
desired province. If you want detailed street level data for Candian cities
then your out of luck as far as free data goes.
Also, consider checking out past editions of our free monthly GIS
NewsMagazine archived at
http://www.spatialnews.com/newsletter/
It comes out once a month (This month's came out today!) and each edition
has a section devoted to Canadian GIS Resources, often focussing on free
data.
Good Luck
