What we do
Credit Relief Canada publishes general educational content about credit reports, credit scores, borrowing, debt, financial literacy, and mortgage affordability. The website also hosts tools that produce estimates and an application that may refer information to third-party financial providers.
What we do not do
We are not a bank, lender, credit bureau, licensed insolvency trustee, credit-repair agency, law firm, accounting firm, or financial advisor. We do not approve or fund loans, set rates, guarantee outcomes, reproduce a bureau’s proprietary score, or provide individualized professional advice.
Editorial standards
- Financial claims should be written in plain language and supported by reliable Canadian sources.
- Loan content must disclose that approval and terms are determined by third-party providers.
- We avoid unsupported statistics, fake testimonials, guaranteed-approval language, and claims that accurate credit information can be removed instantly.
- Calculators and simulations must identify their assumptions and limitations.
- Material financial pages include a reviewed or updated date.
Sources and review
Primary sources are preferred, including the Financial Consumer Agency of Canada, Department of Finance Canada, Bank of Canada, Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation, provincial regulators, and official credit-bureau information. Financial rules and product practices change, so readers should confirm current requirements with the relevant provider or regulator.
Referral and advertising relationships
The website may receive compensation from advertising or referral relationships. Compensation does not guarantee that a particular provider will be shown, approve an application, or offer the lowest-cost option. Users should independently compare alternatives.
