If you were in Canada, you could've gotten your GCMS notes yourself, for free, I believe, directly through the government website.
If you have a relative or a friend in Canada who would agree to get them for you free of charge, you could get them for 5 CAD.
If neither is true, you can order them via a service like visafile or, in my case, gcmsnow.com. They'll cost about 23 USD (there are more expensive packages, but they're mostly redundant). It will take 30-45 days, though there have been cases where it took about 20 days.
First you have to apply for your notes and pay the fee via the service's website. Then they'll send you a form that you need to print, sign, scan and email them, for them to be able to request your personal information from the Canadian government.
After that, and after about 30 to 40 days from the date you send them the signed form, you'll get an email with your GCMS notes.
If you applied with your spouse, make sure to fill in the relevant section in the form, or his/her data will be redacted from the GCMS notes.
