Yes the NRCan Greener Homes Grant is a federal grant program worth $5k
There is also a"up to $40,000, interest free loan" that has been announced and should be available in the next few months
I haven't received the funding yet, it's a slow program, but my install is eligible and there should be non-issue getting approval.
With solar clubs and the energy coops paying a premium in the summer, I am anticipating a payout I 8-9 years.
