Who we help
For Canadian owners who are done doing finance on the side.
Books behind, tax coming, a hire or a deal ahead. One firm builds the department around you.
What your department covers
Your department, built around you.
Start with the books. Add payroll, tax, and fractional CFO. Bring in tax or transaction advisory when the file calls for it.
Cloud bookkeeping
Online and outsourced books on Xero or QuickBooks Online. Catch-up or ongoing monthly.
Receipts come in through Dext, banks are reconciled, and GST/HST filing is included, so every month closes on a P&L you can open without guessing.
GST/HST includedMulti-province sales taxEcommerce sales tax Explore Cloud bookkeeping→Payroll
Payroll on time. Accurate. On your schedule.
Pay runs, remittances, and year-end T4s sit with the team that keeps your books, so CRA questions do not bounce between vendors.
Explore Payroll→Corporate tax returns and financial statements
T2 returns and compilation financial statements from the same team that keeps the books.
Year-end starts from clean books, so liabilities are flagged before they land, not in a March scramble.
Explore Tax returns and statements→Fractional CFO
Decisions on this month's numbers. Cash, forecasts, and the call.
Cash, forecast, and variance are reviewed with you on a set cadence, so you make the call before you spend or hire.
Explore Fractional CFO→Tax advisory
Tax as a plan, not a year-end surprise. Designed by CPAs, then documented with counsel.
Owner pay, Holdcos, freezes, and reorgs are designed before year-end or the LOI hardens, with a written planning memo before your lawyer documents anything.
Explore Tax advisory→Transaction advisory
Buying or selling a Canadian private company. Quality of earnings, sell-side prep, and tax design.
Sell-side prep before the data room opens, or quality of earnings before you buy, so price and structure are set before the letter hardens.
Explore Transaction advisory→Not sure where to start?

- Tax records what already happened.
One department
One team, same numbers.
- Bookkeeping contact, payroll contact if in scope, account manager, partner on the file.
- Tax returns start from the books we keep.

Ecommerce →Medical practices

Small businesses →Startups
Clean books from day one.
Catch-up or monthly cloud bookkeeping, so tax and growth are not a scramble when the hire or the raise comes.
Startups →Trades
