BDO Canada

What grew to be a leading provider of professional services to clients across Canada and beyond started as a single entrepreneur with a dream. BDO knows the challenges small businesses face, the growing pains of the mid-market, and what it means to become an enterprise, because that's how the firm transformed over the last 100+ years. Our teams deliver a comprehensive range of assurance, accounting, tax, and advisory services, complemented by emerging technology savvy, deep industry sector knowledge, and an understanding of the needs of local communities. As Canadian markets shifted over time, we adapted and evolved with them—offering a breadth of services to support the ever-expanding business landscape. After years of national and international growth, our global BDO network positions us to provide consistent cross-border services to clients with global needs. With over 90,000 people working out of more than 1,600 offices in over 160 countries, the network generates worldwide revenue approaching $10.3 billion. Our people-first approach to our talent experience has earned us multiple awards, including a spot among Canada's Top 100 Employers for 2022.
