Some 800 Canadian companies have received some $2.1B in financing support through the Trade Impact Program (TIP) launched by Export Development Canada (EDC) in March 2025 to help them navigate through tariffs and uncertainties related to global trade.
EDC says, “more than 85% of the total support was delivered through working capital and trade credit insurance solutions” and to many companies in hard hit industries such as steel, aluminum, lumber, manufacturing and agri-food. Through TIP up to $5B in financing tools is being made available to Canadian companies over a two year period. EDC and Canadian Manufacturing provide more details.
