I recently bought an iPhone 5 from apple and it was factory unlock, but i had to sent it back for screen replacement and they sent me a new phone with new IMEI number and stuff, So my question is How do i make sure that my replacement iPhone 5 is factory unlock is there a way to do it?
iPhone 5, iOS 6.0.1
Your carrier may be able to tell you, otherwise just try a SIM from another carrier.

Lets say:
Then in this situation, what should a person need to do? Is there a number or anything like that
Try a different Sim card from a carrier other than yours. If you don't have one, ask to borrow one from a friend or relative and put it into your phone. If the iPhone recognizes the Sim, your iPhone is unlocked. This will not damage or change your friend's Sim card in any way, if you just put it in your phone and take it out after determining whether it is recognized or not. Don't change any settings while the Sim card is in your phone.

I believe all iPhone 5s sold in Canada are unlocked.
