Quebec Grants & Funding
61 programs available in Quebec
Grants in Quebec come from two main sources: federal programs open to applicants across Canada, and provincial and territorial programs funded specifically for Quebec. Many organizations qualify for both, so it's worth reviewing federal and Quebec programs side by side rather than assuming one rules out the other. This page lists 61 open programs available to applicants in Quebec, updated as programs open and close.
Funding in Quebec spans small business financing, workforce training, research and innovation, clean energy, agriculture, and arts and culture. Each program sets its own eligibility around applicant type, sector, project stage and location, and most grants are non-repayable — always confirm the funding type and deadline on the individual program before you apply.
Use this page to shortlist Quebec grants worth pursuing: open any program to see funding amounts, eligibility criteria, deadlines and how to apply, then focus your effort on the programs that are currently open and match your organization.

Grants in Quebec: Common Questions
What government grants are available in Quebec?
Quebec applicants can access both federal grants offered across Canada and provincial or territorial programs funded specifically for Quebec. They span business financing, workforce training, research, clean energy, agriculture, and arts and culture — this page brings the currently open programs together in one place.
Are there both federal and provincial grants in Quebec?
Yes. Federal programs run nationwide and are open to eligible Quebec applicants, while Quebec's own programs target local priorities. Many organizations qualify for both, so it's worth reviewing them together.
Who can apply for grants in Quebec?
Eligibility depends on the program. Grants target specific applicant types — small businesses, nonprofits and charities, Indigenous-owned enterprises, municipalities and researchers — and set rules around sector, project stage and location. Each program page lists its exact criteria.
Do you have to repay grants in Quebec?
Most government grants in Quebec are non-repayable, unlike loans. Some funding is offered as repayable contributions or a mix of grant and loan, so always check the funding type and terms on the individual program before applying.
