Are students hoping to start their own business able to apply for a free Canadian government grant funding to do so?

The Canadian government makes available money by way of grants to students and other entrepreneurs looking to start a new small business so long as the applicant is otherwise eligible. However, the grant is not free in the truest sense. Being a student can factor into one’s qualifications, however. It typically influences the amount of money the entrepreneur himself brings to the table, and may also provide indications of how organised and prepared to run a business the person is.
