Live Canada search: 5,000+ results across federal, provincial, and municipal buyers, filtered by province, level, and jurisdiction.
From CanadaBuys-style federal opportunities to provincial portals, municipal RFPs, and the broader MASH public sector. One source, every level.
PSPC-led and federal department procurement, the CanadaBuys / Buyandsell.gc.ca layer of national tenders.
All 10 provinces via portals like Ontario Tenders, BC Bid, SEAO (Quebec), Alberta Purchasing Connection, and SaskTenders.
Cities, regional municipalities, and towns posting RFPs, RFQs, and notices to local suppliers.
School boards, colleges, and universities across the broader public sector (the MASH sector).
Health authorities, hospitals, and regional health networks buying goods and services.
Transit agencies, water utilities, and Crown corporations that procure outside the core government envelope.
Full coverage language for Canadian government contracting: Ontario, Quebec, British Columbia, Alberta, the Prairies, Atlantic Canada, and the territories.
Track Canadian federal procurement, including CanadaBuys / Buyandsell.gc.ca-style opportunity discovery, alongside the rest of your Capture sources. Stop hopping portals to see what PSPC and federal departments are buying.
Narrow to a province, a buyer level (federal, provincial, municipal, education, health, transit, water, Crown), or a specific jurisdiction like the City of Toronto. Screen for Indigenous set-asides and product vs. service in the same panel.
Ask Sammy to read a solicitation in English or French and answer questions like “What are the key requirements?” SamSearch parses Quebec SEAO / CCAG documents and federal French tenders, so a language barrier never costs you a bid.
Save searches by province, level, or municipality and get alerted when new federal, provincial, or municipal opportunities match your profile, so recompetes and fresh RFPs reach you the day they post.
Save searches by province, level, or municipality, then let alerts bring the next matching tender to you.
From a plain-English question to a saved, alerting pipeline in five steps.
In Smart Search, toggle Canada on next to Federal, SLED, Grants, and your other sources. You can search Canada alone or blend it with U.S. opportunities in one query.
Describe what you sell: “emergency mass-notification SaaS,” “road resurfacing,” “managed IT for municipalities.” Smart Search returns matching Canadian tenders ranked by relevance, not just keyword hits.
Narrow by province, buyer level, jurisdiction, Indigenous set-aside, RFX type (RFP / RFQ / RFI / Source Sought), and product vs. service until the feed reflects only work you can win.
Open any solicitation and ask Sammy for the scope, key requirements, and deadlines, in English or French, with citations back to the source PDF.
Save the search, get alerted on new and recompete opportunities, and move winners into your capture pipeline alongside every other source.
CanadaBuys, MERX, BC Bid, SEAO, and municipal sites each hold a slice of the market. SamSearch brings them into one workflow.

Canada is a dedicated Capture source in SamSearch, alongside U.S. Federal, SLED, SBIR/STTR, DIBBS, GSA eBuy, and more. Coverage spans federal procurement (CanadaBuys / Buyandsell.gc.ca and PSPC), provincial and territorial portals (Ontario Tenders, BC Bid, SEAO, Alberta Purchasing Connection, SaskTenders, and Atlantic portals), and municipal / local public-sector solicitations, so BD teams can work one pipeline instead of dozens of sites.
Yes. Canada search supports geographic and organizational drill-down: Canada-wide, then province or territory, then buyer level (federal, provincial, municipal, education, health, transit, water, Crown), then a specific jurisdiction such as the City of Toronto. That helps contractors who sell only in certain regions or who are expanding province by province.
Yes. The Canada filter panel includes an Indigenous Set-Aside toggle, so businesses qualifying under the Procurement Strategy for Indigenous Business (PSIB) can isolate reserved opportunities across federal and other levels of Canadian government.
Yes. Sammy, our AI, reads and summarizes solicitations in both English and French, including Quebec SEAO documents that reference the CCAG (Cahier des clauses administratives générales). You can ask questions like “What are the key requirements?” directly against a French PDF and get a structured English answer with citations.
Those portals remain authoritative for posting and bidding. SamSearch aggregates and organizes Canadian opportunity discovery into the same AI capture workflow you use for other sources, with search, summaries, alerts, and pipeline tools, so you spend less time monitoring Buyandsell.gc.ca, MERX, BC Bid, SEAO, Ontario Tenders, and municipal sites separately.
Canadian contractors selling to federal, provincial, territorial, or municipal buyers; U.S. firms expanding into Canada; Indigenous businesses pursuing set-aside work; and consultants or BD teams that need one place to monitor Canadian public-sector RFPs and tenders next to Federal, SLED, and SBIR work.
Under Capture → Find Opportunities, Canada sits as its own source card, just like Federal Contract Search and State & Local (SLED). Sammy and your saved searches can treat Canadian opportunities as part of the same multi-source capture stack.
Federal Canada, provinces, territories, and municipalities in the same AI workflow as your other sources.
