If your business has felt the pinch from global tariffs such as rising costs, supply chain disruptions, and shrinking margins, you’re not alone. Fortunately, the Canadian government has launched the Regional Tariff Response Initiative (RTRI) to help companies turn these challenges into opportunities.
RTRI is all about resilience. It helps businesses invest in the future by modernizing operations, diversifying supply chains, expanding into new markets, and building innovation capacity. For many companies, this support can be the difference between struggling under tariff pressure and emerging stronger, more competitive, and future ready.

Three regional programs are available, each tailored to support businesses in different parts of Canada. Explore the one that applies to you.
