She might be able to find a sakura matcha flavor at NRT, and something with blueberry, but other than those two, the only other ones I've ever seen there are match, strawberry, strawberry cheesecake, and a standard issue flavor.
I've heard that there's a place to get more at Tokyo station, but I can't recall the name.

If you can stand to go to Ikebukuro:

There's currently a very odd "bake your own" version that is widely available, wasn't tempted to get it myself, might interest your friend though

Many of the really "interesting" flavors are limited time, promotional items. As such, they are often not all available at the same time. Many of the times I have visited, I have found something new, only to never see it again.

As noted in LapLap's TimeOut link, Seibu Department Store Ikebukuro opened a Kit Kat Store in their food court:

It looks like a pop tart concept kit kat.

Pacific Mall at the outskirt of YYZ (where OP is) has the most selection of Japanese Kit Kat at a single location, arguably even compared to Japan. 2 shops at either end of the mall selling the stuff.
You can certainly find more than 4 different flavours threre (outside of the "normal" selection of regular, strawberry and green tea, which are available even at T&T supermarket)
In Japan, Green Tea and Strawberry flavours can be purchased cheap (399 per bag) at Donki .

A friend of mine is visiting from Japan this weekend. And I am trying to get me as many kinds of Japanese kit kat flavours as possible. So far, she has only been able to find white, black, strawberry and green tea. I'm quite disappointed. Aren't there more interesting flavours? I've bought wasabi ones before. And I know there are like grapes, cookies and cream etc. Does anyone know if the stores at NArita have more variety? Or if you guys know any store in Tokyo that has all the regional flavours. I think some of the stores in Ameyoko might have it but she lives in Kanagawa and sound reluctant to go that far. 
hhehe. any help will be awesome
hhehe. any help will be awesomeI've also picked up a Hokkaido Red Bean one in Haneda last month (in addition to the toasted original and pudding flavours and the Kyoto regional flavours which I picked up in town).

Narita should have every flavor currently available in Tokyo, including the ones that are attraction-specific. It's not just three or four flavors. You just have to walk around the shopping area a bit. There are many shops that sell Kit Kat but there are a couple that specialize in it.
As others have said, you're probably only going to find the current flavors. But you'll find all of them at Narita.
I took a photo in 2010 of one small display rack at one shop in Narita and I count nine different flavors on it.
