Not a recommendation but a business process. Are your books up to date? If not, save thousands of dollars by hiring a knowledgeable bookkeeper first.

BDO Canada LLP (5 th largest public accounting firm!) I'm a staff accountant there, and we specialize in small to medium sized businesses. I have done countless returns for a company's first year end, and even helped new businesses become aware of saving money and proper tax planning. For future reference we provide services that cover, Audit - Assurance - Advisory - Tax - Recovery. You give a quick call at 403-266-5608 and get a feel, if you like what you hear, meetings can be set up to discuss everything else in length.

Thanks for all the ideas! I've been getting flyers for all kinds of accounting firms in the mail since I incorporated (which to me is more of a turn-off/red flag to avoid those places). Still happy to receive more personal recommendations

In my experience the bigger the firm the worse you will be ripped off if you are a small business looking for this kind of help. I recommend you find a 1-2 man shop, make sure they are a certified/licensed accountant. Don't use H&R block whatever you do.
