The Quebec rules that apply

Provincial or territorial law decides who may lend in Quebec, and the Financial Consumer Agency of Canada publishes the list that names the regulator responsible.

How borrowing works locally

A lender's assessment looks at income, existing obligations, the credit file, and the asset pledged where there is one.

A lender may ask for proof of address, and a permanent address is a standard requirement for consumer credit. Provincial licensing decides who may lend, and federal rules add a ceiling where a licensed payday regime exists.
