UK transit visa

Transiting without a visa
You might be eligible for ‘transit without visa’ if:

One of the following must also apply:

Dubai transit visa:
According to http://www.uaeinteract.com/travel/visas.asp:
Transit Visa
Transit passengers stopping at Dubai International Airport for a minimum of 8 hours are eligible for a 96-hour transit visa. A valid onward ticket is required

As you have a single ticket with all three airlines, then you should be OK for checking your bags through to Canada. But the best bet is to double check with Air India to make sure they have Interline Agreements with Emirates (they should have with Air Canada as both are part of Star Alliance).
Assuming the Interline agreements are in place and your bags are checked through, then you need not clear immigration or customs at the intermediate airports.
With a Canadian Visa you are exempt from the UK's transit visa rules - Travelling from India to Canada: Transit visa in the UK?.
Dubai offers a 96 hour transit visa, but if you are staying airside for only a few hours, I believe you do not need a visa. Air India can likely confirm this when you check with them about the Interline Agreement.
