Doing Business and Starting a Business In Canada How Do We Compare?
Filed in archive Startup by Greg Balanko-Dickson on September 14, 2006

Apparently, entrepreneurs in Canada only need to go through two steps to start a business which takes approx. 3 days and requires $ 2,934. Compared to the U.S. (# 3 for starting a business) who have five (5) steps which takes five days and costs $3,061.80 to start a business in the U.S.
The survey results do not state what exactly the 'costs' to start a business are actually used for. I assume that it is the cost to get a lawyer to incorporate, registration fees and licenses, and perhaps accounting fees? However, it could be based on the costs to incorporate a Federal corporation whereas registering a provincial
corporation are usually lower, at least that is my experience in Alberta.The bottom line is that it is pretty easy to start a business in Canada and the costs are comparable to our U.S. neighbors.
