How to access R&D incentives and programs
All figures are in Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted.
The Competitive Alternatives 2006, a comprehensive, international survey conducted by KPMG, revealed that Canada's business costs are the lowest among the G7 countries (the U.S. , U.K. , France, Germany, Italy and Japan).
Canada offers an average 5. 5% cost advantage over the United States, an advantage that grows even larger in key sub-sectors such as corporate services (5.3%) and software design (6.7%). For research and development (R&D), the cost advantage is 10.9%.
Most Canadian industrial R&D is performed in Ontario. About half of Canada's Top 100 corporate R&D spenders are located in Ontario. During 2003, industrial R&D spending in Ontario topped $7 billion, 53% of the Canadian total.
In Ontario, we boost Canada's 0.9% R&D cost advantage by offering a wide range of additional tax incentives and R&D support programs, a network of internationally recognized researchers and research institutions and an excellent telecommunications and industrial infrastructure.
For example:
- Internationally competitive salaries. In knowledge-intensive activities, wages, salaries and other forms of compensation such as stock options are major cost items. In Ontario, payroll taxes are lower than those in any G7 country. Other programs can help lower compensation costs even further, such as the Ontario Research Employee Stock Option Credit.
- R&D infrastructure. Government-funded research councils, Centres of Excellence and funding programs help bring together researchers from private companies, universities and public research institutes. Ontario's hard infrastructure - telecommunications and transportation - provides seamless international links.
- Highly educated and skilled researchers. Billions of dollars spent annually in R&D at private companies, universities and public research institutes support a large Ontario community of first-class scientists and engineers. The province's 20 universities and 24 colleges of applied arts and technology generate a steady supply of new graduates. In terms of the broad labour force, 57% of all Ontarians aged 25–64 have completed their post-secondary education.
That's a higher percentage than in any of the 30 countries surveyed by the Paris-based Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), including the U.S., U.K., France, Germany or Japan.
Join the major companies with worldwide operations that have research institutes with global mandates in Ontario. Some examples:
- the Centre for Advanced Studies at the IBM Toronto Laboratory
- the Nortel Institute for Telecommunications at the University of Toronto
- the Nortel Institute for Advanced Information Technology at the University of Waterloo
- the University of Windsor/DaimlerChrysler Canada Automotive Research and Development Centre
And, Ontario-based companies with international operations such as:
- ATI Technologies
- Magna International and
- Husky Injection Molding Systems Ltd.

"At DuPont, we see Ontario, with its proximity to major markets and technology-intensive businesses, as a great place to seek growth opportunities and new business developments. For example, we're continuing to build on the more than 50-year tradition of innovation at our Kingston Research, Development & Engineering Centre, which is a global leader in the development of polymer products and processes. We recently started up a new production facility at Kingston which is manufacturing a breakthrough product that adds enormous strength and durability to end-products such as tires, belts and hoses. Our easy access to a network of leading Ontario and Canadian universities, including Queen's in Kingston, is also valuable as we pursue expanded new biology-based research and initiatives."

Canada's R&D tax incentive program ranks among the most generous of the G7 countries. Any size business can submit a claim. The range of eligible costs in Ontario is broader than those in many countries and there is no cap on the program.
In general, the federal Scientific Research and Experimental Development (SR&ED) tax incentives consist of:
- A 100% deduction of all eligible SR&ED costs, including capital equipment
- A 20% investment tax credit on SR&ED expenditures
- The investment tax credit can offset 100% of the federal tax payable in the year, or can be carried back 3 years or forward 20 years.
For small, Canadian-controlled private corporations (CCPCs):1
- The investment tax credit increases to 35% from 20%, up to the first $2 million of R&D each year
- The investment tax credit is wholly or partly refundable in cash, even if the company does not have enough tax payable to use the credit.
Ontario provides additional tax incentives when R&D activities are conducted directly by companies in Ontario or through eligible research institutes. Additional basic incentives available to companies in Ontario include:
- Federal investment tax credits earned for SR&ED carried on in Ontario are exempt from Ontario income tax
- A 20% refundable Ontario Business-Research Institute Tax Credit (OBRITC) for contract R&D performed at eligible research institutes in Ontario such as universities, colleges of applied arts and technology, and research hospitals.
In addition, for small and medium-sized companies2 in Ontario:
- A 10% refundable Ontario Innovation Tax Credit (OITC) for R&D.
1 Small CCPCs have:
Federal and provincial Scientific Research and Experimental Development (SR&ED) incentives generate significant tax savings, both on a percentage basis and because of the wide range of activities that qualify. The federal SR&ED tax credit can reduce your cost by 20%. Additional Ontario incentives can reduce your after-tax cost of $100 in R&D expenditures to less than $41.
Savings vary by the type of corporation. The following charts illustrate the after-tax costs of $100 in SR&ED expenditures for various types of corporations, based on the tax rates for 2006.
"Pratt & Whitney Canada has earned a strong reputation over the years for innovation, technical excellence and proven engine reliability. This has been made possible in large part by our deep commitment to research and development and the application of leading-edge development and manufacturing processes. Pratt & Whitney Canada is the largest R&D investor in the Canadian aerospace industry and one of the top five R&D investors in the country's private sector. The know-how and dedication of our Mississauga, Ontario employees has enabled us to develop more than 50 programs over the last 10 years. We are well positioned to meet the challenges of tomorrow."

"Nortel is Canada's flagship high-tech company and a global leader in developing and delivering networking and communications solutions to customers in more than 150 countries around the world. Close to forty percent of the R&D activity behind these solutions is driven out of our R&D headquarters in Ottawa, Ontario – Nortel's largest site globally, both in terms of size and number of employees. Our presence in the region has helped establish Ottawa as the most important high-tech centre in Canada. In fact, more than 200 local companies can trace their roots back to Nortel, based on the premise that either Nortel people or Nortel technology have formed the basis for the company. Our continued and long-term presence in this area reflects the quality and availability of top caliber knowledge workers and the favourable conditions for investment in Ontario."
1. WHAT TYPES OF ACTIVITIES AND COSTS QUALIFY FOR THE R&D TAX INCENTIVES?
A wide range of activities qualify for Scientific Research and Experimental Development (SR&ED) benefits in Ontario. Eligible activities 1 include:
- new product development
- development of new or improved materials
- manufacturing process improvements
- software development
- clinical trials of new drugs or medical devices.
Compared to the U.S., Canada has a much broader range of costs that qualify for the tax credits.
| More costs qualify for R&D tax credits in Ontario | ||
|---|---|---|
| Ontario | US | |
| Wages and salaries | yes | yes |
| Capital equipment | yes | |
| Materials | yes | yes |
| Overhead | yes | |
| Contract expenses | yes | 65%–75% |
In addition, the Canadian 20% investment tax credit generally applies to every dollar of R&D. In the U.S., the federal R&D tax credit generally applies to incremental R&D expenses. In other words, in the U.S. you generally do not earn any R&D tax credits if your current R&D expenses do not exceed the base amount derived from your past gross receipts and past R&D spending.2
2. I'M CURRENTLY IN A LOSS POSITION. WHY SHOULD I CARE ABOUT DEDUCTIONS THAT ARE JUST GOING TO EXPIRE?
Write-offs of R&D costs may be deferred for Canadian income tax purposes. If an Ontario company does not need to take the deductions in the year they are incurred, the R&D expenses can be carried forward indefinitely.
In the U.S., R&D costs must be expensed in the year they are incurred. They then become losses, subject to expiry.
1 Provided three key criteria are met:
All figures are in Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted
2 A U.S. taxpayer can elect to claim the alternative incremental credit for R&D, which is determined on a different basis.
3. AREN'T TAXES HIGHER IN ONTARIO?
No. Ontario's combined federal/provincial corporate tax rate is lower than in many leading manufacturing states.
| Province/State | Percentage |
|---|---|
| Pennsylvania | 40.6% |
| Minnesota | 40.4% |
| Ohio | 39.6% |
| Indiana | 39.6% |
| Wisconsin | 39.2% |
| New York | 38.9% |
| Illinois | 38.8% |
| Michigan | 38.3% |
| Ontario | 34.12% |
"IBM has been doing business in Ontario for almost ninety years. Our roots go deep and so does our investment in research and development. In 2001, we opened a state-of-the-art software laboratory in Markham which employs 2,500 innovative software developers. Since then, we have spent well over $1 billion in software R&D at this flagship Ontario centre. Ontario is recognized as a pre-eminent destination for many companies competing in global industries. Its highly skilled professionals and well-trained multicultural labour force, coupled with its dynamic business environment are why companies like IBM have chosen to locate here."
Dan Fortin, President, IBM Canada Ltd.
4. WHAT ABOUT PAYROLL TAXES?
Among the G7 countries, Canada has the lowest overall labour costs, including benefits. Total payments for Canadian statutory and other benefits are 25.6% of salary and wages compared to 34.2% in the U.S. Lower medical insurance premiums are an important factor.
5. "How do Canada's R&D incentives compare with other leading industrial countries?
A study by Ernst and Young concluded that Canada offers the most generous tax regime for R&D among all the G7. The report further went on to point out that, Combined with Ontario provincial R&D incentives, a company carrying on R&D in Ontario can reduce costs by up to two-thirds.
Another international study comparing the cost of conducting R&D, this one by Industry Canada, showed that performing the same R&D in other countries would cost significantly more than it would in Canada.
| HIGH QUALITY R&D FOR LESS | ||
|---|---|---|
| Country | Cost | |
| Germany | 119.7 | |
| Italy | 119.2 | |
| United States | 111.5 | |
| United Kingdom | 108.5 | |
| France | 104.5 | |
| Japan | 100.5 | |
| Canada-ON | 100 | |
All figures are in Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted.
6. WHAT IF MY HEAD OFFICE WANTS TO RETAIN OWNERSHIP OF THE INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY DEVELOPED IN ONTARIO?
Your head office can do that. An Ontario corporation can claim R&D tax incentives even if its R&D costs are covered, in whole or in part, by payments from a foreign corporation or government.
The Ontario subsidiary could do R&D under contract for its foreign parent and still claim the 20% federal investment tax credit. In certain cases, the Ontario subsidiary may also be able to claim the 10% refundable Ontario Innovation Tax Credit. The 20% refundable Ontario Business-Research Institute Tax Credit may also be available where the Ontario subsidiary subcontracts some of the R&D to an eligible research institute.
A foreign corporation paying for R&D performed by an unrelated Ontario company can benefit indirectly, since the Ontario company will be able to provide the service at a lower cost due to the tax benefits it receives.
7. WILL MY OPTIONS FOR STRUCTURING MY R&D INVESTMENT BE LIMITED?
No. You have significant flexibility in structuring your R&D investment. Foreign and Ontario companies can benefit under a variety of scenarios:
- The foreign parent can contract with its Ontario subsidiary to perform R&D
- The Ontario subsidiary of a foreign company can undertake R&D on its own
- A foreign company can contract with an unassociated Ontario company to do R&D on its behalf
- A foreign company can set up or acquire a minority interest in a small Canadian-controlled private corporation (CCPC) that performs R&D.
The billions of dollars in R&D performed in Ontario every year help stimulate a powerful cross-fertilization of expertise and ideas between the private and public sectors. Here are some of the most active companies pushing the boundaries of innovation in Ontario.
