TESTIMONIALS
"The opportunity to run my own office for BDO brought me to the Brantford community in 1996. The growing community offered an excellent business climate and supported the potential to expand our professional accounting services. Since that time, I have been offered a new challenge with BDO as the Chief Operating Officer for BDO Canada. I work out of the Toronto office however I continue to reside in Brantford-Brant because of the outstanding quality of life it provides for my family and I. "
Russ Weir, Chief Operating Officer, BDO
