Who in Canada offers grant money to start a business?

Most grant money made available in Canada to start a business will come from the local, provincial or national government agencies. It is also possible a limited amount of ground money may also come from private organisations with an interest in promoting the start up of new business in Canada. Grant money is not free, however, despite many misconceptions, and you may be required to match the government dollar for dollar in order to start your business, or there may be other conditions attached.
