How this page is counted
A company is listed when at least one of its awards comes from a business or innovation program: IRAP, CanExport, the regional development agencies and similar. Its city is the one on its most recent award. 75 public bodies and institutions are counted in the record but not listed as companies. Records filed under a person’s name are left out. Each award is counted once, even when the government publishes it under two listings. Published agreement values from the federal Proactive Disclosure of Grants and Contributions (awards over $25,000) and the Alberta and Nova Scotia disclosures, for the programmes listed. Not included: tax credits other than the two Nova Scotia registers, loans, other programmes and provinces. Data as of July 2026.
