Good to know
- Funding: The page's table lists provincial/territorial business limits (including $500,000 for several jurisdictions); the federal limit itself is not recorded as a field.
- Notes: Status 'Ongoing' is inferred because the page lists the rate without an end date; no explicit status statement exists.
