About Ottawa

Stable, services-driven economy with concentrated SMB activity in tech, consulting, and government-adjacent contracting.

What is local to Ottawa

Invest Ottawa describes Kanata North as Canada's largest tech park, with more than 540 companies and 33,000 employees. Hardware, lab and test equipment for tech firms is often replaced as products change. Financing it over its useful life, with the equipment as security, spreads the cost across the contracts it serves instead of paying for it up front.

The federal public service had 111,200 employees on the Ontario side of the National Capital Region on March 31, 2026, out of 146,149 in the whole region. Invest Ottawa counts more than 1,800 tech companies and 88,000 tech workers in the city.

Is equipment financing regulated differently in Ontario?

In Ontario, lenders record their claim on a business's assets in the Personal Property Security Registration system, run by ServiceOntario under the Personal Property Security Act (PPSA).

Ontario charges 13% HST on equipment and has no separate provincial sales tax.
