Ancestry has posted the Drouin collection in it entirety.  It has not been indexed, but is browsable by location or parish.

Numerous records for Michigan and Southeastern Ontario have been posted, including Michilimackinac, Sault Ste Marie, St Joseph (Niles) Detroit and Sandwich/Windsor.

The Detroit records include the Notary records from 1737.

The Ste Anne's records include the orgininal records plus the transriptions/indices that are in the Burton Collection.

The Assumption records also include various indices.

Other Ontario records included in the collection (this is just a brief list of local records)
Amherstburg, Chatham, Belle River, River Canard, Tecumseh, Tilbury, Windsor (St Alphonsus, includes indices).

In addition, all of the Drouin collection Quebec and Acadian records are online (only browsable); they are accessable through an alphabetical a list of parishes/locations.  The collection also includes Protestant records.

For the rest of the U.S., records are included from Mobile, Alabama; Vincennes, Indiana; Caskaskia, Fort de Chartres and Prairie du Rocher, Illinois; St Gabriel, Louisiana; Forisant and St Louis, Missouri; and miscellanous records from other states.

Since I have had a subscription to the World Collection since last June, I cannot provide a current quote for a subscription to the World Collection or whether the Canadian is available separarely.
