We are so glad you're here! Let's get started!

This is a short self-paced course which provides you with some resources to get started on keeping good records to keep the Canada Revenue Agency happy as you launch your business. These tools will help you keep track and support your claims for eligible expenses for your small business. These are basic tools to keep you organized, but please ensure that you also hire a professional accountant to keep you compliant with all of the tax laws! If you are having any challenges, or have any questions about this introductory course, please contact Brenda at [email protected] I am here to support your entrepreneurship journey.

You can access these resources any time! Have fun-well- as much fun as you can have when you're learning about taxes!
