Federal Government News Release: Canadian Tourism Growth Program

Details from the Federal Government news release:

Tourism drives economic development and diversification in many Canadian regions and communities. The Government of Canada’s Tourism Growth Program (TGP) aims to help small and medium-sized businesses, tourism organizations, and local communities to grow and develop tourism products and experiences that position Canada as a destination of choice.

Delivered by Canada’s regional development agencies, including PacifiCan, the $108 million TGP provides regionally tailored funding over three years to support communities, businesses and not-for-profit organizations in growing and developing local tourism projects and events.

The TGP program is open to businesses and not-for profit organizations. Businesses may apply for interest-free repayable contributions. Not-for profit organizations may apply for non-repayable contributions. All eligible applicants must be legal entities capable of entering into legally binding agreements.

The Tourism Growth Program will be accepting application from November 20, 2023 at 9:00 AM PST until February 20, 2024, at 11:59 PM PST.
