How do you get a government grant to start a business in Canada.?

We figured it'll take at least 200,000 to start. We can do everything mostly ourselves. We live in London, ON. I'm looking online and hitting dead ends. Does anyone know what to do?

Contact the Canada-Ontario Business Service Centre at and inquire 1-800-567-2345 .

Their website never even mentions about availability of grants for businesses, but they do mention that the Canadian Small Business Financing Program , under the Canada Small Business Financing Act , can help businesses obtain term loans of up to $250,000 to help finance fixed assets

In the US, grants are hardly given for starting a business, though there's widespread myth perpetuated by scammers who claim that it is easy to get grants for a for profit venture. So please be careful when visiting websites that claim they can get grants for you
