Yep there is a DIR specific forum and also technical forums here so that may well be a good place to start.
I think we have a few YD members in Canada if my memory serves me correctly one is called Pretty Flowers although i havnt seen her posting much recently. Anyway welcome to YD I'm sure you will find plenty of info and advice here

There is a Canadian diving agency, your equivalent to CMAS/BSAC etc
perhaps they may be worth talking too

No.
This is where diving for fun should start.

Once you've got a lot of fun under your weight belt then you will start to realise there are areas you want to extend into. That's when you go looking for extra training to fill in the holes and to take you to places you couldn't go before.

Rescue is good. That tools you up as a safe diver. Now you need experience of making your own decisions. Anything I might suggest from there just tries to turn you into me and you're not me. There is a huge range of diving experience out there - go discover your niche.
