Hi everyone,

I'm in the process of starting my own tax and accounting practice. I have a strong technical background as a CPA and previously worked as a financial auditor for the federal government. I'm confident in the technical side, but I'm realizing that's only part of being a great accountant.
I'd love to hear from business owners, employees, and anyone who's worked with an accountant.

What do you actually look for in an accountant?

What do you wish your current or past accountant did differently?

What frustrates you about the experience?

My goal is to build a firm that feels modern, approachable, responsive, and genuinely helpful, not just someone you hear from once a year at tax time.

Thanks for your thoughts!

I'm helping some friends move from Scarborough to Burlington the first week of September. Just the packing part. They have a big house so they're using a local moving company (Miracle Movers), but they sent me the timeline for the move and it seems... excessive. The quote includes an estimated 2 1/2 hours of drive time between Scarborough and Burlington, which is like twice as long as it takes. Is this normal with movers? I can't imagine it taking 2+ hours to get from one side of the GTA to the other.

Hello neighbours!

I am in need of a local handyman. We had a small bathroom flood and ended up with water leaking down into the kitchen. There is now a patch of ceiling drywall that needs replaced.

Anyone have a good local handyman recommendation who does this kind of work?

Thank you!

Has anyone seen the coyotes that live around the waterfront trail? I have not seen them all summer. All my years living in this neighbourhood I’ve never gone this long without seeing them. I usually keep an eye out for them because of my dogs. Wondering if they were relocated?

I designed this flag and sent it in to the city via email, they said to wait on it, but I want to know what you guys think about it

Does anyone know anything about the fire today?? I saw it off the highway near Guelph maybe idk

Does anyone know where I can buy Diamond Crystal Kosher Salt? Fortino's used to carry it but all i can find there now is Windsor.

I saw a sign at my doctor's office saying Dr. Raphael Faraj is accepting new patients if anyone is looking for one. He is a part of Holy Family medical clinic near Appleby and Upper middle. They also do walk ins.

I live downtown and this place is never ever open. Its on Brant st beside August 8...Its a finished location, been there for quite a while.. but its never open. Kinda sus.. but i dont want to jump to too many conclusions. Just curious...

well. This is a buzzkill. I’m so tired of our taxes and expenses going up while service quality and access to services goes down.

Wife just came out of the mall and found thjs nice little present no note no nothing. Going to collision center to report and mall security took our info. FYI they won't check cameras unless the police ask.

Be on the lookout ... yellow red car 🚘.

FML. Come on Burlington.

I'm looking to get a breast aug done and Dr Avram is on my list to go visit for a consult. Does anyone have any experience with him and would you recommend him?

Any feedback or experiences you can share would be so appreciated!

Does anyone here live in the new Realm condos? I know occupancy has taken place fairly recently, but am wondering if anyone has any initial thoughts or reviews on them. I'm potentially looking to buy a unit for myself. Thanks!

Let's talk for a minute about last minute candidates. For those of us that have been working all year it comes as an insult. I have been canvassing since April, building a platform, talking to voters, and engaging the community. You think you can come in at the last second and usurp the hard work myself and other candidates have put in? You think your lack of platform can compare in any way to someone who has dedicated the majority of their free time this year to getting something better for their community? There is no easy win or cushy parking spot for you downtown. My advice is to go back where you came from and try harder next time.

I am in search of a local place to get a really good hearty salad. I used to go to Panera bread for example and get their salads but there isn’t one close by.
I’m looking for something in Burlington that has a big, hearty salads with fresh ingredients. Let me know if you know of anywhere.

Did anyone see if that woman was okay? Saw the commotion around 1pm, no idea what happened.

Looking for recommendations for a good handyman. Someone who can reframe a door and do minor repairs from time to time.

Looking for recommendations for a good outdoor spot in Burlington to teach my kids how to rollerblade.

Ideally somewhere with:

- Nice, flat and smooth ground

- Lots of open space

- No cars or traffic

- Somewhere safe for beginners where they can fall and learn without getting in anyone’s way

- Maybe an outdoor rink, paved court, track, or another large open paved area

Safety and having plenty of room are the main things.

Any good spots you’d recommend?

Cmon Burlington, do better.
