BizPaL is an online service of information about permits and licensing requirements from the three levels of government. It is an integrated response by all levels of government to the problems entrepreneurs sometimes encounter when starting up or growing a business.
BizPaL generates a personalized list of the business documents needed from the three levels of government- local, provincial/territorial, and federal- that may have to be dealt with in order to grow or start up a business. If the business is already operating, entrepreneurs can use BizPaL to verify that all the correct permits and licences are valid.[1]
The program is available in municipalities and provinces which have an agreement between each other and the federal government.
The following is a list of participating provinces and municipalities as presented on the BizPaL federal website.[2]
