The Ontario rules that apply

The body that licenses consumer lending in Ontario is the regulator named on the federal Payday Lending Regulations (SOR/2024-114)'s list of provincial and territorial regulators.

Payday lending is licensed in Ontario; the federal Payday Lending Regulations (SOR/2024-114) publish a cap of $14 per $100 advanced, and notes that a province may set a lower figure.

How borrowing works locally

A mortgage is registered against the property, which is what gives the lender its claim.

A revolving product charges interest on the outstanding balance, while an instalment product charges a fixed schedule of payments. A longer amortisation lowers each payment and raises the total interest paid over the life of the loan.
