Our approach is to start with the traditional areas of bookkeeping, accounting and tax services.
But this is just the beginning.
We then raise the bar for each and every client.
Accounting and Auditing
The core of our practice consists of traditional compilation, review and audit services. We tailor all accounting and auditing services to your specific requirements. Assurance work (reviews and audits) can be prepared under any of the Canadian financial reporting frameworks, including International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), Accounting Standards for Private Enterprises (ASPE) and Accounting Standards for Not-for-Profit Organizations (ASNPO).
We also prepare cash flow projections for lenders, offer management information system recommendations and update IT applications.
Estate and Retirement
Developing an estate and succession plan is integral to your financial success. It can be as simple as reviewing and updating an existing will with a codicil, or in more complex situations a complete reorganization of a corporate group with the introduction of holding companies and family trusts.
Corporate and Personal Tax
The complexities of Canadian income tax law, changes to Canada’s Income Tax Act and strict General Anti-Avoidance Rule (GAAR) regulations require a serious commitment from a progressive practice. We have made this commitment.
Our focus is to develop tax strategies to minimize your tax, so you and your business retain as much after-tax income as possible.

Management Advisory
Our partners are highly experienced in management advisory services for business owners and entrepreneurs. Our expertise includes cash flow projections, business valuations, financing proposals, developing business plans, R&D credits, government grants and much more.
Cross Border Tax
Our Cross-Border Tax team has the expertise to meet your international tax needs.
We are uniquely positioned with in-house Canadian and U.S. tax professionals to focus on Canada-U.S. cross-border tax work for American citizens and green card holders who live in Canada and Canadian individuals and businesses that have income from the U.S. Canada-U.S. tax rules are complicated and require a comprehensive and integrated approach to ensure compliance with Canada and U.S. tax rules and to avoid double taxation. G&G has made a significant commitment to creating a team, both here and in the United States, of experienced CPAs dedicated to assisting clients with their U.S. filing requirements. In 2018, we created a new association with a cross-border tax practice located in Florida (CBTA). This provides significant resources and infrastructure to further service the needs of our U.S. cross-border clients.
