People applying for grants often get overwhelmed by the multitude of departments, and programs offering grants to Canadian businesses. Often they don’t know how to apply, and end up surfing the web for grants that look appealing, and ultimately end up applying for programs they won’t qualify for, or not even applying at all. They regularly conclude that they will have no chance of getting a grant and stop applying all together. This mentality is wrong. Do not let yourself become discouraged.
