Can I start a new business via government grant money?

You will be very interested to know that there are billions of Canadian government dollars dedicated to helping people in Canada start their own business via government grant money. A government grant is an ideal way to get underway with your small business, without the added worry of having another loan to repay when you start to make a little extra money in your new business. Grants are generally non-repayable, so it is a huge incentive for someone to apply for a grant which they can use to build a business and not add on another loan payment to their existing expenses.
