Small business gets nod BY JACK RIDDELL, M.P.P. In June of this year, the Ontario Liberal Party compiled "A Guide to Federal -Provincial assistance Programs For S:m.ala.-11u.si-nesses q in Ontario". As a general rule, government agenoies act only as a lender .of last resort. In the event that you are unable to obtain assistance for your business from a char- tered- bank or loan company, you may be eligible to participate in a govern -meat financial program. FEDERAL PROGRAMS The Business Centre should be your first point of contact. This is a new service opened as a major clearing house for information and help in virtually every facet of Canada's business and industry. Here you will obtain information on the type of assistance available. A direct toll- free line from anywhere in Canada is available by calling the long distance operator and asking for Zenith 0-3200. This service was established because many small and medium- sized businessmen had been frustrated- in their efforts to find the'r way through the federal maze to the appropriate department, branch or official. A Crown Corporation, the Federal Business Development Bank, may make direct loans and may also participate in equity financing projects. It has..pubii.shed a series ofinformative brochures entitled, "Minding Your Own Business", offering some ' basic advice and information on several aspects of small business management. Under, the Small Business Loans Act, a federal program gives. impetus to lend to • chartered banks and other participating • lending institutions, ..by means of a government guarantee of the borrower's obligation to repay the loan. All chartered banks . are authorized to make small business Loans under the Act: Loans ,maybe made by Credit Unions, Caisses Populaires .or other co- operative societies, trust companies, etc.. The Enterprise • Development Program of the Department of Industry, Trade and • Commerce assists small and medium-size firms in the manufacturing and' processing sectors with the relatively high risks involved in the development of new ' products and innovative production techniques. Often, firms seeking assistance under this --program will have ap- proached other lenders such as the Federal Business- Development Bank, before .applying to, the EDP. Farm Improvement Loans, guaranteed by the government, are provided by chartered banks or other approved lenders, Term loans are available- to farmers for the purchase of • agricultural implements, livestock and additional land, etc. Repayment terms are up to 15 years . for additional land and up to 10 years for other purposes. Under the Fisheries Improvement Loans - schemer, the federal government guarantees term loans made to fishermen by chartered banks and other ap- proved lenders.for a wide range of fisheries im- provement projects. The maximum amount which a borrower may have, outstanding atone tirrie is $75,000. Maximum repayment •period -is three years for vehicles and 10 years for all other purposes.
