The Ontario rules that apply

The federal payday lending regulations, SOR/2024-114, cap the cost of borrowing at $14 per $100 advanced in Ontario, which the federal Payday Lending Regulations (SOR/2024-114) list as a province that regulates the product.

How borrowing works locally

A broker arranges credit but does not lend, and the lender remains the party that makes the decision.

A deposit or trade-in reduces the amount financed and therefore the interest charged over the term. A secured product gives the lender a claim on a named asset, which is why its price is usually lower than an unsecured equivalent.
