Is an Ontario small business able to apply for federal grants?

Most Canadian federal grants should be available to a small business in Ontario, barring certain conditions that prevent the small business applicant from being eligible for the grants. These may include being of the wrong business type. Of course, there are also private organisations that offer loans. These may include banks, and some charities and other altruistic associations also offer small business grants. However, they are far fewer and more difficult to qualify for in most cases than are grants from the Canadian federal or provincial governments, or that of Ontario itself, for that matter.
