"John is the representative that we deal with at FBC and I cannot say enough about John. He is professional, experienced, he is talented at his job and friendly. John comes right to out home, it's unusually a 5 hour appt, I try my best to be prepared for him. I appreciate that he listens to my needs as well as my husbands needs for himself, the farm and our company needs. John at FBC does his best to help us with all his talent and skills. If he doesn't have an answer for a question, he'll check in to it for us or he refers us to someone who does know. When I've called into the office, the staff has been great to talk to and my messages are given promptly. Thanks Ladies! In the past, I have had accounting firms that did not listen to all our needs, I did not appreciate being talked down as the wife/bookkeeper to, by other firms. Due to that fact, I was nervous switching again to another firm. FBC was/ IS a very good choice. They have not let me down. Thank you for being patient, respectful and professional. Thank you John, Thank you FBC."

"David was so informative, helpful and made me feel like he knew how to take care of everything that is outside of my scope of tax awareness. The mental space it creates not having to stress about filing business tax again is worth every penny of the investment. I am way more confident in filing taxes as an entrepreneur this year and no longer worried about leaving money on the table!"

I wanted to have the best company to make my life easier. John is AMAZING! FBC is top notch, so much so, that they now do my payroll. I can't recommend their services loud enough to anyone in business, make the move to FBC... you won't regret it!"

We really appreciate all that FBC has done for us from preparing for retirement, to estate planning and of course our taxes not only with the farm, the trucking business we have as well. Love the fact that FBC comes to us - so great to see our representative and this adds such a personal touch that I think no other company can compare to this amazing service. Whenever I have questions or need to book an appointment it is never an issue. Everyone is amazing!! Thank you so very much!"

Oilfield Services
(FBC Member Since 2004)
"My favourite part is having that bookkeeper come once or twice a month and go through all the numbers and go through everything to make sure that we are on top of things, and that we’re not missing documents. And it works every time – every, single, time. We don’t miss documents. We don’t miss anything. We have the right numbers. We know where we’re at, we know what we have to strive for in terms of profit, and we know what the real need is in the company."

"You've been with my family since I can remember in grade school and now as I start my own business years later, it's so reassuring to know that the same people who helped Mom and Dad are helping me. Peter and Blake are calming, helpful, and most importantly, make me feel totally confident (both in what they do and in their ability to help me financially) with my own start up."

(FBC Member Since 2018)
"We enjoy being with FBC becuse they're easy to work with and if I have any accounting or farming questions, I can call them and they can answer my questions right away, or get someone to call me back. It's really easy working with FBC which is a relief when you're busy in the fields, busy at farmer's markets, and busy just being a farmer and a mother and everything that comes with being a farm family. And FBC makes that very easy. It's stress-free for us in our farming business."
– Leslie Z., Farm Owner
(FBC Member Since 2012)
“FBC’s job is to be the go-between between the government and you. That to me is astronomical because paperwork really is not my forte and reading between the lines is really not my forte. I don't mind getting dirt under my fingernails, but putting the pen to the paper and having to read some documents is not my forte.”
– Paul I., Owner

"It takes a lot to impress me. I'm beyond words to describe the thoroughness and teamwork that I've witnessed. I feel so in tune with our minutes and what's going on with our company like never before. All the education with new ideas to help us along our way has been exciting. Not only are there new ideas but a plan in place that we were part of. It's nice to feel so cared for that at any time you can receive a response for unanswered questions. Love, love, LOVE our decision in changing companies after 35 years!"
– Audra S., Owner/Operator
(FBC Member Since 2019)
"I just wanted to take a few minutes to review FBC. They were my fourth accountants since I got into business about ten years ago. Had trouble with other outfits, apparently too busy to take my calls and answer my questions about planning my future. I consider FBC to be a "partner" in my business, and can't say enough about how great they have been over the past years. They always have time for me, and give me excellent advice and information. They meet with me when it is convenient for me, usually evenings, as I work during the day. They have been fantastic, and I encourage other small business owners to use their services.
I personally use Clem Forest Leblanc at their Dartmouth location. He is a fantastic guy who really cares about my business, and helps me with lots of great advice. I would encourage you to join the 'club' today and see the difference that FBC brings to the table. One of the best decisions I have made since starting my business!"

"I’m very confident with their accounting firm. My income tax return is done properly. I’ve had no issues with them. I feel my return is coming back the way it should be and I highly recommend that if you’re thinking of switching firms, that these guys are the way to go to – just can’t say enough about them. I’m very happy that finally, someone is working for me."

– Matthew M., Owner/Operator
(FBC Member Since 2019)
"My initial conference with the accountant that was handling my case was very informative and resulted in my complete confidence in him. This fall has been exceptionally busy for me getting a new venture off the ground and I was remiss in not getting him the info he needed. Instead of letting it ride, FBC followed up with me which I truly appreciated."
– Joe A., Owner/Operator
(FBC Member Since 2020)
"I love that over the 15 years I have used FBC, I have had three consultants, two of which I still have a relationship with, within your company. If I ever have questions, or concerns, my answers come quickly, and when I drop the ball, your team picks it up and makes sure it's looked after. Best costumer service I have ever had with accounting."
– Camilla D., Owner/Operator
(FBC Member Since 2007)
"Sheldon has gone out of his way to show me exactly how many benefits FBC has, that apply to us. Had he not put out the effort that he did, I would have missed the corrections that my previous accounting firm missed. Also, even with my first meeting, I've found dealing with Rob to be very easy. I get the answers I've been looking for in language that I can understand."
– Scott A., Owner/Operator
(FBC Member Since 2020)
"Jody went out of her way to make sure that I have every aspect understood on how to submit my taxes for the previous year, and also that I made sure of what I could claim for the upcoming year.
