Latest Testimonial

I have known Kim since high school. 4 years ago, CRA decided to do a net worth audit on our personal and businesses. Our expensive chartered accountant at the time basically left us for dead. I have always known Kim as smart and fearless, so I called her for advice.

Kim and her team dropped everything and took over for me. She allowed me to work with them as much as possible to help lower costs. Kim worked with the auditors and put everything together meeting CRAs ridiculous timelines. Since then Kim has taken over all my taxes, cleaned up and streamlined my bookkeeping. She has assisted me with GST and PST audits, and everything in between!

If Kim does not know the answer to your question, she takes the time to research and provide you with the correct answer. Her prices are fair and affordable, her service is outstanding. Her personality is relaxed yet professional. She makes you feel part of the team, not just a number! Kim and her team consistently look out for my best interest. It's not every day your accountant genuinely cares about your situation and what’s really in your best interest. My years of loyalty will definitely continue!
