In 2021, as Canada recovered from the COVID-19 pandemic, the federal government provided over 33,000 businesses with innovation and growth support valued at $4.5 billion through 134 federal programs.
In partnership with the Treasury Board Secretariat, Statistics Canada produces information about these programs via the Business Innovation and Growth Support (BIGS) database, which is now available for the 2021 reference year.
