“FedDev Ontario wants to help entrepreneurs reach their potential and unlock new possibilities. We will continue to invest in the people who are growing businesses across Ontario.”
– The Honourable Filomena Tassi, Minister responsible for the Federal Economic Development Agency for Southern Ontario
October marks the celebration of Canadian small businesses. This is a fantastic opportunity to recognize and honour the contributions of entrepreneurs across the country. I have seen firsthand the commitment and dedication of business owners like you. Your resilience and innovation create productive and successful companies that provide good jobs for Canadians.
Managing a small business has always presented unique challenges, but the current landscape adds complexity with ongoing worker shortages, interest rate hikes and rising inflation.
The Government of Canada supports the success of local businesses because we know that you are the heart of our economic strength. We are committed to empowering you through continued funding and access to resources.
Support is available through the Federal Economic Development Agency for Southern Ontario (FedDev Ontario). Our Small Business Services help entrepreneurs access information and services, including guides on starting or buying a business, planning, financing and hiring employees. As well, companies can get funding to help them grow, innovate and compete.
