No. Loans are repayable capital — you pay them back, usually at a favourable rate. Grants are non-repayable. Many companies use both: a grant or tax credit to reduce project cost, and a loan to finance the cash-flow gap. CanaGrants labels each opportunity by type so you never confuse them.
The Canada Small Business Financing Program shares the risk of term loans made by your bank or credit union — up to $1.15M for equipment, property and leasehold improvements. You apply through a participating financial institution, not the government directly.
Yes. A common structure is IRAP cost-sharing the R&D, SR&ED refunding more at filing, and a BDC line financing the portion you fund yourself. We flag stacking considerations on each brief — confirm terms with the lender and the official program.
No. CanaGrants is software that helps you find and track financing programs from Canadian lenders and government bodies. We are not a lender or a government agency — always verify rates and terms with the official source before borrowing.
