Yes. Several lenders serving Ottawa do not check your credit score at all, deciding on income and banking history instead. Among those that do check, most accept scores in the 500s. What most often causes a decline is unstable income or a very recent bankruptcy, not the score by itself.
Only if the lender reports to the credit bureaus, and not all do. Ask before signing: a loan that is never reported builds no history. The credit-builder products on this page exist specifically for rebuilding, starting at 0% interest with a monthly fee instead.
