The Canadian Society of Allergy and Clinical Immunology has a find-an-allergist directory, and the Canadian Allergy, Asthma and Immunology Foundation funds research.
Both are national food allergy charities: FARE works in the US, funding research and running education and advocacy, and Food Allergy Canada does the same for Canadians. Their guides often overlap, but school rules, food labels and medication options differ between the two countries.
In Canada, use the CSACI's find-an-allergist directory or ask your family doctor for a referral. In the US, the AAAAI and the ACAAI both have allergist finders, and the AAAAI's covers Canada too.
