Products compared here

The product pages behind this city cover the following borrowing categories, among the 20 products compared nationally.

• Instalment loans: A fixed number of fixed payments, sized larger and longer than a payday advance.
• Secured loans: Borrowing against an asset, which lowers the price but puts the asset at risk if you default.

How borrowing works locally

A credit file is compiled by private agencies from information lenders and other creditors report.

A longer amortisation lowers each payment and raises the total interest paid over the life of the loan. Adding a co-signer puts a second file in front of the lender and adds a second person to the obligation.

The Quebec rules that apply

Consumer lending in Quebec is licensed provincially or territorially, and the Financial Consumer Agency of Canada publishes the list of provincial and territorial regulators where the current position appears.

The federal Payday Lending Regulations (SOR/2024-114) are explicit that Quebec does not license payday lending, which changes which rules a short-term advance falls under.

Small places are covered the same way as large ones: census figures for the place, and the provincial position on lending.
