Canadian Small Business Grants and Loans


Governments in Canada realize that small business is a significant part of our economic growth, and they want to help provide the necessary financial resources to facilitate this. In fact, they have set aside over 21 billion dollars in 2009 for small businesses to grow the economy and help you to start, expand, and improve your business. Such government small business financing can take the form of small business grants (non-repayable), low or no-interest loans (repayable), tax refunds or credits, guaranteed purchases, financial insurance against business risks, and repayable contributions.

Will your small business benefit from Canadian grants or loans from federal and provincial governments? Many small businesses receive government grants in Canada for many different purposes, including:

  •  Grants and Subsidies (one-time and renewable)
  •  Low or no-interest loans
  •  Tax refunds or tax credits
  •  Government insurance against business risks
  •  Guaranteed government purchases of your product or service
  •  Government Information and Services
  •  Conditionally Repayable Contributions
  •  Grants in-lieu of Property Taxes
  •  Equity Financing
  •  Relocation Grants
Can your small business afford to miss out on these opportunities? Imagine how easily you could turn increased financial resources into a competitive advantage! So who has these funds? Which programs are appropriate for your small business? How do you apply? What are the secrets to being approved?

The Small Business Finance Centre has the answers. All you need to do is mail your application, and if approved, cash the cheque when it arrives.
