My wife is starting a new business, does she qualify for a new business loan?

If your wife is starting a new business, as long as she is the business owner she could very well qualify for a new business loan under the Canadian government grants and loans programs for new small businesses. The new business loan is specifically for individuals that are starting a new business. There are other loans and grants in place for established businesses and those that want to expand their businesses for example. Ideally it would be a good idea for your wife to speak to qualified professionals that specialize in the new business loan programs that are issued by the Canadian government.
