Our Services

You have questions, we’ll get the answers.
It’s what we do.

Accounting &
Assurance

Professional financial statements instill confidence. We offer compilation, review, and audit engagements, and we perform special purpose audits. With data analysis, we can create insights to improve the quality of your business information. To reinforce your values and initiatives, we’ll help you communicate ESG and other non-financial information. For real-time collaboration and financial information, we support cloud accounting software, including QuickBooks, Sage, Xero, @EASE, and VISTA, so you can keep track of your business any time, anywhere.

Business Advisory

A secure future is your goal, whether you’re starting fresh and choosing a business structure or re-evaluating your priorities in our post-pandemic world by exploring M&A, divesting assets, succession planning, or selling your business. Let our advisors boost your confidence by helping you create opportunities, make informed decisions, and execute your strategy while reducing risk. We offer a variety of services including strategy, budgeting, financial management, foreign operation integration, and business performance improvement and monitoring.

Estate & Succession Planning

Whether you’re planning for retirement or succession, let us guide you over the long term to ease the transition. We’ll help you reach your goals, preserve your wealth, and protect your legacy. To put your mind at ease, we’ll coordinate the professional services that will contribute to your business’s success and discuss complex succession-planning strategies like family trusts, life insurance, and tax minimization in plain English.

Entertainment & Digital Media

We handle the accounting and business affairs so you can focus on production. From full back-office services for animation clients — bookkeeping, banking, HST, payroll — to pre- and post-production accounting for live-action projects, we specialize in maximizing tax credits, securing certificates, and managing audits (CAVCO A/B, CRTC C#, OFTTC, OPSTC, OCASE, Ontario Creates funding, corporate tax, and more). For content and merchandise distribution, we prepare detailed reports and ensure timely payments to stakeholders, including the Canada Media Fund, broadcasters, and rights holders.
