Canada CDAP Assistance is a website promoting support for Canadian businesses seeking to adopt digital technology. It describes the Canada Digital Adoption Program (CDAP) as a Government of Canada initiative associated with the Business Development Bank of Canada and Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada.

Its offerings include information and assistance with a grant of up to $15,000, an interest-free loan of $25,000 to $100,000, and a wage subsidy of up to $7,300 for eligible interns. The website says grant funding may cover up to 90% of an advisor consultation fee and presents loans as support for putting a digital adoption plan into action. It also promotes guidance in areas such as online marketing, artificial intelligence, and information technology, alongside application help and contact by phone or online. The site outlines eligibility criteria, including Canadian ownership, for-profit operation, specified revenue, and employee ranges.
