TESTIMONIALS
We have dealt with Don Mackay and Associates (Mackay MacNicol Sadler) since relocating to Alberta in 1997. All our personal accounting needs were handled by them with the utmost professionalism and courtesy.
In the year 2000 we formed an Electrical Contracting Company and continued to deal with Don and his team and found their assistance invaluable. We formed two additional companies in recent years and of course Don and his staff handle all our outside accounting needs.
Last year we experienced financial difficulties due to the recession. This was a very stressful time for us personally and professionally. We asked Don and his team to help us through this as we were a bit overwhelmed with our bank's requirements pertaining to our monthly banking needs and miscellaneous financial matters. The assistance we received from Mackay MacNicol Sadler was magnificent. After our first meeting on this issue our stress level was reduced substantially just by the fact that they were going to help us through this and the knowledge that we were in good hands.
We got through this rough time and would never consider moving our accounting needs elsewhere. We cannot imagine an accounting company that could perform better.
We would not hesitate to refer this team to anyone requiring accounting needs.

I was always told that in order to succeed in business, two of the most critical assets you must have and maintain, are a great lawyer and an even greater accountant.
I have had the support and backing from one of the most trusted accountants, and his accounting firm, that any business person would be honoured to rely upon.
When the time came for me, approximately ten years ago, I turned to a good friend, Don MacKay, who took a critical and unprofessional situation that another accounting firm had created. The situation was remedied, our firm followed the direction of Don Mackay, introduced an in house accounting system, which his firm recommended, and as a small business firm, have come to depend on Don's, professional, competent, and highly trusted team.
I will always depend upon Don MacKay to give me facts as they are and guidance to succeed in business.

I want to write you this letter from a client who is very grateful. Also to say I got a lesson in “You get what you pay for”. So please use this as a testimonial. From a business who hired a Basement Accountant for years. Thinking what could be the difference?
Let me tell you now from experience our story,
We brought our three companies books in by a recommended referral. It all started by just a gut feeling something was really wrong with our accounting. I remember you listening with such intent and lowering your glasses “Tammy Relax we will look at everything just give us some time, Okay”. I felt at ease.
Your intent was to correct bookkeeping errors and in diligence re-file with Revenue Canada. Our timing could not have been better to meet your firm. Only our luck was really poor! As just a short time later letters from Revenue Canada came. With a three year audit for all three companies.
I felt what a mess, scared and sick, as I did not have the first idea what to expect. This is when first hand I can say you and staff handled me, my companies, Revenue Canada with straightforward strength.
Everyone was prepared for every meeting with Revenue Canada Including the three companies and me. Mackay MacNicol walked us through every step before and after many meetings. The direction given to someone like me who never has done any accounting before was invaluable. Truly this only comes in knowledge and confidence obtained in a profession by professionals who know and do what they say they can.
What really was impressive and appreciative is the touch of humanity felt by all in your office. For my husband and me during the audit. Never did we feel uncomfortable.
All the best wishes for your continued success! Thank-you.
