Big News Announcement 🚨

After almost 8 wonderful years, our Bornn Bookkeeping Team has decided to make a major life change.

Back in March, I (Chantelle) decided to wind down my bookkeeping practice as of Sept 2025.

I will be retaining a small amount of my charity and not-for-profit contracts as that is where my heart is. I need to slow down and have time for my family and kiddo.

Instead of selling traditionally, I am gifting all of my bookkeepers their clients to start their own practices. This will allow them to start their businesses with the clients load they can support and thrive in.

6 more incredible female entrepreneurs are coming on to the scene. 🔥

We are supporting each other by forming a Bookkeeping Collective so no one is left without support, education and community.

This has been bittersweet but important decision. I still haven’t figured out what I want to be when I grow up but I want to see what the world holds for me. And sleep, without dreaming in spreadsheets.

It’s business as usual until August transitions start but I am excited for our next chapter 💕

It is with great sadness we say goodbye to our beautiful Office Manager and bully friend, Mabel.

She has been a constant presence in our office and we will miss her terribly.

RIP Sweet Girl. 🐾

Are you someone that uses e-transfers regularly? 🤔

Here are some tips to keep you protected when sending and receiving them!
When you send an e-transfer, make sure to:
- send money only to someone you know and trust
- choose a security answer that can’t be easily guessed
- safely share your security answer with your recipient and don’t share it in the email notification message
- register for Interac e-transfer Autodeposit, if it’s available to you

But be aware that you can’t cancel an e-transfer that has already been deposited.
When you receive an e-transfer:
- be careful of any unexpected e-transfer from someone you don’t know, contact the sender if you were not expecting the transfer
- be aware of common fraud techniques and scams such as fake transfers and phishing scams

Did you know... that the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) allows deductions for motor vehicle expenses that you generate when operating a car to earn an income in your business.

By making a habit of tracking and recording your travel every day, you can ensure that you don’t miss any kilometres. If your records are as accurate as possible then you don’t have to guess or think back to where you drove to each day.

Pro tip: pick up a cheap notebook from the dollar store and keep it in your car so you have a ready-to-go record during tax time.

A commonly asked question is…. What are the general expectations of the client when hiring a bookkeeper?🤔

When it comes to our clients, we understand that everyone has their unique approach to handling their books. Some prefer to be hands-on, while others entrust us with their paperwork. We’re totally flexible and accommodating, so whichever way you choose to work, we’re cool with it.

However, there’s one common expectation we have from our clients: good, timely communication. We recognize that as entrepreneurs, you’re constantly juggling various aspects of your business, and your time is precious. But, to ensure we’re doing the best job possible, we do need a bit of your time for questions and corrections.

We often communicate via email as it helps ensure all parties have a documented trail of our discussions. This not only protects both you and us but also fosters a strong working relationship built on transparency and trust.🤝

We’ve all been there and have received calls from people claiming they are from the Canadian Revenue Agency. It's not uncommon for scammers to pretend to be from the CRA. Fortunately, there are ways to verify whether or not the caller is really from the CRA or not.

When the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) calls you, the employee will identify themselves by giving you their name and a phone number to call back. Never call the phone number that was given to you unless you have verified it yourself with the CRA.

Learn how to make sure the caller is a CRA employee and not a scammer by visiting

Have you ever noticed the little padlock in your address bar when visiting a website? 🔒

When shopping, or banking, online, always make sure that the lock is there. Addresses that start with "https." or the padlock symbol is a sign that your information is secure.
