Can just any start up small business apply for money from the Canadian government?

Any start up small business can apply for money from the Canadian government without bothering to check their eligibility, but that is not the same as actually being qualified, let alone being approved. Keep in mind that all financial assistance programs in Canada have their own eligibility requirements and intended uses – knowing which grants or loans are best for a start up business looking for government money is the first step to success.
