Frequently asked questions
How many funding programs are open to Yukon small businesses right now?
31 verified programs are open as of our latest checks: 13 Canada-wide, 5 Yukon-wide and 13 open only to specific owner groups. Programs open and close through the year, so every record shows the date we last verified it.
Are these grants or loans?
Both, clearly labelled. Of the 31 open programs, 7 are grants or rebates you don't repay and 24 are loans or financing you do repay. A loan is never dressed up as a grant. Every card says which it is.
Who decides whether my business gets approved?
Each program's administrator, never us. BBN Labs is an independent Canadian company, not a government agency. We verify and explain the programs, and applying through the official program site is always free.
