How borrowing works locally

A longer amortisation lowers each payment and raises the total interest paid over the life of the loan.

A mortgage is registered against the property, which is what gives the lender its claim. Provincial licensing decides who may lend, and federal rules add a ceiling where a licensed payday regime exists.
