What are government grants?

Government grants are funds provided by local, provincial and federal governments across Canada; to help small business owners with their businesses. The Canadian Government relies heavily on local small businesses to stimulate the economy, increase employment rates and bring money to the local communities.

In order to support them, our governments provide small businesses with funding to help business owners to cover many of the costs associated with running a business. Doing so ensures the success of small businesses Canada-wide. Because government departments don’t often promote themselves, it
can be difficult to find what grants are available at any given time. With this come many  misconceptions, which impact what we – the public – know of and think about when it comes to grants.

Be sure to read on to avoid the same mistakes.
