How borrowing works locally

A provincial regulator publishes licensing requirements, and the Financial Consumer Agency of Canada publishes the list of provincial and territorial regulators.

A deposit or trade-in reduces the amount financed and therefore the interest charged over the term. Interest on a line of credit accrues only on the drawn portion, not on the unused limit.

The Alberta rules that apply

The body that licenses consumer lending in Alberta is the regulator named on the federal Payday Lending Regulations (SOR/2024-114)'s list of provincial and territorial regulators.
