Private equity rounds in this Canada list span from 2021-07-27 (TRADE X) through 2025-11-29 (Broadsign), with most disclosed financings clustering in the most recent window: on/after 2022-07-14 there are 17 rows, and several large disclosed amounts appear in late Oct–Nov 2025 (Electric Mind $100M on 2025-10-28; Optimus SBR $82M and DealMaker $20M on 2025-11-04). Disclosed sizes are highly top-heavy: the largest disclosed round is Fullscript at $240M (2021-11-09), which is well above the next-largest disclosed $200M (Ting, 2022-08-09) and far above mid-range disclosures like Electric Mind’s $100M (2025-10-28) and the $100K floor seen in Eyelit (2022-03-22) and Apply Digital (2022-01-12).
Geographically, Ontario appears repeatedly across multiple metros (Toronto, Concord, Burnaby not), with Toronto showing several deals at different dates (DealMaker 2025-11-04; Optimus SBR 2025-11-04; Electric Mind 2025-10-28; Sterling Brokers 2025-10-07; Apply Digital 2022-01-12; PathFactory 2021-11-05). Disclosures are also frequently missing: 15 of 29 rows are “undisclosed,” leaving 14 disclosed amounts for comparisons.

Frequently asked
What’s the largest disclosed private-equity round in this Canada list, and how much does it dwarf the rest?
Fullscript’s $240M on 2021-11-09 is the top disclosed amount, exceeding the next-largest disclosed round of $200M (Ting on 2022-08-09). After those two, multiple entries land at $100M (Electric Mind on 2025-10-28; Insurance Supermarket on 2022-07-18) and below, including smaller disclosed rounds like $16M (Laps on 2022-02-03) and $20M (DealMaker on 2025-11-04).
Is there a concentrated time window for these rounds among the 29 entries shown?
Yes. Several of the newest rounds fall in late Oct–Nov 2025, including Electric Mind $100M (2025-10-28) and Optimus SBR $82M plus DealMaker $20M (both 2025-11-04). The list also includes a broader older cluster between 2021-11-05 and 2021-11-23 (Fullscript, PathFactory, North American Helium, and Skinfix).
Which cities show up more than once, suggesting geographic clustering (based on city-level locations)?
Toronto is the most repeated metro in the shown rows: DealMaker (2025-11-04), Optimus SBR (2025-11-04), Electric Mind (2025-10-28), Sterling Brokers (2025-10-07), Apply Digital (2022-01-12), and PathFactory (2021-11-05) are all listed in Toronto, Ontario. Other cities appear once each, like London (Rubix 2025-11-04; Waste Solutions Canada 2025-09-09; Insurance Supermarket is listed in Concord, not London).
What does the stage mix look like across this specific listing?
Every row shown is labeled “Private Equity,” with no other stage categories present in the dataset. That means comparisons are driven by round dates and disclosed amounts rather than stage differences (for example, Ting’s $200M on 2022-08-09 versus Eyelit’s $100K on 2022-03-22).
Are there sector patterns (and do any sectors appear in 3+ entries)?
Several sectors appear only once or twice, but “Health Care” is the clearest repeat: Intelerad (2022-07-14), 123Dentist (2022-07-12), Skinfix (2021-11-12), and Fullscript (2021-11-09) all carry Health Care in their sector labels. Other repeated labels exist but do not reach the same apparent 3+ frequency based on the provided rows (for example, Financial Services appears in DealMaker, Harbourfront Wealth Management, and Insurance Supermarket).
What outliers stand out in disclosed deal sizes, considering both the largest and the smallest disclosed amounts?
The $240M maximum (Fullscript on 2021-11-09) contrasts with the disclosed floor of $100K, which appears twice: Eyelit on 2022-03-22 and Apply Digital on 2022-01-12. Between those extremes, many disclosed rounds sit in the $20M–$100M band (DealMaker $20M on 2025-11-04; Payworks $23M on 2025-09-14; Electric Mind $100M on 2025-10-28), while 15 of 29 entries remain undisclosed, limiting side-by-side comparisons for those companies (e.g., Broadsign 2025-11-29 and Rubix 2025-11-04).
