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
