You can't rent or even USE one unless it's under the supervision of the registered owner; some indoor ranges in Canada will rent guns for use on their ranges, but that's considered "under supervision". Your best chance is to find an owner in the locale of your aunt's farm, and see if they'd be willing to accompany you for a day of shooting (which may also require a provincial hunting licence; not sure about hunting regs, as they differ by province). You might be able to find a willing soul at www.canadiangunnutz.com . HTH
BTW, where are you planning to go?

Where in Canada are you visiting .. western or eastern?
Maybe it would just be easier to slip over to the American side.
If you want to come visit me, you can shoot right here on my place.
