Victoria BC Bookkeeping & Income Tax Preparation
About Canwest Accounting
Canwest Accounting Ltd. was founded on June 4, 1991. The company started slowly and has focused on client service from the beginning. Our belief is that good service to our clients is the cornerstone of our business. Here we are now, 26 years later and still growing strong.
Our practice has grown over the years partly by word of mouth referrals and partly by purchasing two bookkeeping practices from companies that were retiring. We were lucky to have worked with these two amazing bookkeeping companies and to help them transition into their own retirement. These acquisitions required a substantial increase in staff. The process was not always painless, but the objective of hiring quality professionals has never been deviated from, even when less qualified people would have been a quick fix.

WHAT CLIENTS ARE SAYING
WHY WORK WITH US
Saves Time
A bookkeeper will spend those couple of hours a week keeping your paperwork up to date so you can relax and focus more on your business.
It Pays To Hire An Expert
A bookkeeper does bookkeeping for a living, so that they will spend less time doing the books than you would and will be efficient and accurate in their work.
CRA Requirements
If the taxation department decides one day to undertake an audit of your business, having your books up to date will make the audit process less costly and time-consuming.
Decision Making is Easier
Having your books in order means that if you need to make a quick business decision that affects you financially, you’ll have all the relevant information at hand to help you make the best decisions.
Track Patterns
With a bookkeeper working regularly on your financials, they’ll see patterns emerging. They will notice sales patterns – any peaks and slow times and bring important matters to your attention that you may have overlooked.
