The right intelligence
for where you do business.

Choose the sector that matches your current or target export market. If you're active in or considering Critical Minerals & Mining, Energy & Cleantech, Agri-food & Agriculture, Advanced Manufacturing & Industrial, Technology & Digital, or Aerospace & Defence — pick that sector. Not sure? Start with the sector closest to your current business and expand from there. You can change your sector selection at any time from your account settings.

The weekly email digest is a multi-sector summary — lead story, signal highlights from each sector, programme deadlines, FDI Monitor, TSX Stock Watch, and Canadian Spotlight. Every subscriber receives it regardless of plan. A full sector report is the complete deep-dive: 4–6 verified signals with expandable analyst detail, a Compliance Desk covering sanctions and export control changes, step-by-step actions with specific contacts and URLs, four market entry pathways, Procurement Watch, Watch For These, and a Canadian Spotlight sector profile. Full reports are 10–15 minutes of reading with immediately actionable intelligence.

The Procurement Hub aggregates federal, NATO, EU, and US government procurement tenders — pulled from CanadaBuys, NATO NSPA, EU TED, and SAM.gov — filtered for Canadian business relevance across six sectors, and searchable in one place. Instead of checking four separate government portals, Canadian businesses can search all open tenders by sector, see which Canadian programme helps them bid, and link directly to the original government source to submit. A standalone Procurement Add-on ($49/mo) is available for procurement officers and trade consultants who don't need the full intelligence subscription.

EDC, TCS, and Global Affairs Canada are excellent resources — and we reference them constantly in our intelligence. The difference is speed, synthesis, and format. Government resources are authoritative but slow, broad, and require you to know what to look for. We run active searches every week, synthesise developments across six sectors, and deliver the specific implications for Canadian businesses in a scannable format with named programmes, named contacts, and dated deadlines. We also surface developments those resources don't publish — competitor moves, geopolitical signals, FDI intelligence, and procurement opportunities across allied nation governments. Think of us as the layer between the raw government data and your Monday morning decisions.

Every week our pipeline runs active web searches across government sources, trade databases, procurement feeds, news, and regulatory publications — 109 search topics across 32 batches covering all six sectors. Results are processed using AI analysis to extract signals, assess Canadian relevance, and generate structured intelligence. Every claim is run through an automated fact-checker that cross-references against known data points. Flagged claims are marked ⚠ Verify in the report. All signals include a primary source citation. Intelligence is AI-assisted with editorial oversight. See our full methodology at canadiantradeintel.ca/methodology.

Every signal we surface is analysed specifically for its implications for Canadian businesses and exporters — not generic global intelligence repackaged. When we report on a NATO procurement announcement, we tell you which Canadian programme helps you access it, which TCS office facilitates introductions, and which Canadian companies are already positioned in that supply chain. When we report on a trade policy change, we tell you which Canadian exporters are affected and what specific action they should take. Generic trade intelligence tells you what happened. Canada-first intelligence tells you what to do about it as a Canadian business.

No. Canadian Trade Intel publishes trade intelligence for informational purposes only. Nothing in our reports, digest, terminal, or procurement hub constitutes investment advice, legal advice, or trade compliance guidance. Market opportunity scores are intelligence tools, not investment recommendations. For export compliance decisions, consult qualified legal counsel and EDC. For investment decisions, consult a registered financial advisor. See our full methodology at canadiantradeintel.ca/methodology.

Yes — and we offer custom annual pricing for organizations that want to distribute intelligence to their members, staff, or client companies. Federal departments, provincial trade offices, industry associations, and export-focused Crown corporations have different requirements than individual subscribers — distribution lists, unlimited internal sharing, and procurement-friendly invoicing. We are also building a Canadian Business Map — an interactive record of Canadian commercial activity abroad — that may be of particular interest to trade promotion organizations. Contact us to discuss organizational pricing.

Yes. You can change your sector selection at any time from your account settings. The change takes effect at the start of your next billing cycle. If you're on the Analyst plan with two sectors, you can swap either sector at any time.

On the Intelligence plan, up to three team members can be added to a single subscription — each with their own login and report access. On the Team plan, up to 20 people are included, plus a distribution list option so the weekly digest can be delivered to your entire team or member list automatically. For larger organizations or association-wide distribution, contact us about organizational pricing.

You can cancel at any time from your account settings. Your access continues until the end of your current billing period — we do not cut access immediately on cancellation. Annual subscribers can request a prorated refund for unused months if they cancel within 30 days of renewal.
