The Ontario rules that apply

Size changes the census figures, not the rules; this community falls in the lower-middle band.

How borrowing works locally

A longer amortisation lowers each payment and raises the total interest paid over the life of the loan.

A shorter term raises each payment and lowers the total interest, which is the trade every schedule makes. A broker arranges credit but does not lend, and the lender remains the party that makes the decision.
