Can I get a loan in Canada from the government for small business?

In Canada you may be able to get a government loan for your small business needs, depending on the loan offers available at the time of your search. You can use loan funding for new business costs, or for existing business needs. However, most offers are more favourable to the applicant than bank loans. If you have an idea of what you need to use the funding for and how much you need, you may be more likely to find a loan that is right for you and your business. This is because each option has its own intended uses and eligibility requirements.
