What are some of the top government grant programs in Canada?

Grant funding is available for Canadians, in the amount of billions of dollars available for eligible businesses.

Grants include various methods of one time and renewable funds, equity financing, and there are different funding sources, e.g., the National Research Council Industrial Research Assistance Program which provides non-repayable contributions with successful applicants.
