Strong team








Experienced, reliable, and dedicated to building a finance function that scales with your business, through structured, ASPE-compliant, and CRA-ready controller services.
Delegate all financial control matters to us. Month-end closes, GST/HST reconciliation, financial reporting, internal controls, we handle it all.
You get expert financial guidance whenever you need it. Just email or call us, not just at fiscal year-end or audit time.
12+ years of Canadian accounting experience behind your financials. CPA-certified professionals who understand ASPE, CRA requirements, and BDC expectations inside and out.
We manage GST/HST across provinces, CRA installments, T2 alignment, payroll remittances, and ASPE-compliant reporting, all under one roof.
We prepare covenant packages, 13-week cash flow projections, and financial statements that satisfy lenders and investors, so financing never stalls on documentation.
We don't create dependency. We document processes, build SOPs, and structure your finance function so it works whether or not we're involved.
Outsourcing controller services provides Canadian businesses with the structure, accuracy, and strategic oversight they need without the $120,000+ cost of a full-time hire.
Rather than pulling your team away from critical tasks to balance accounts and meet deadlines, you can rely on experts familiar with Canadian accounting standards. This ensures ASPE-compliant financials, timely CRA compliance, and reports that meet BDC requirements.
With outsourced support, your finance function becomes reliable. Month-end closes are on time, GST/HST reconciliations run smoothly, and cash flow forecasts are accurate. Whether you’re a growing startup or an established business with complex operations, outsourced controller services keep your finances in order and your focus on growth.
You don’t wait. You don’t chase us. We manage close schedules, build reconciliation processes, and deliver your financials on time every month. When you outsource to Ledger Labs, your month-end runs like a system, not a fire drill.
We go beyond recording transactions. Every account is reconciled, every adjustment is documented, and your financial statements are structured for review engagements, BDC reporting, or full audits.
We don’t just apply generic processes; we understand how Canadian businesses actually operate. That means proper multi-provincial GST/HST handling, CRA-aligned reporting, and financials that reflect your real operational picture.
Our certified CPAs bring deep expertise in Canadian accounting standards, CRA compliance, and the financial reporting that Canadian lenders and investors expect.

"They found over $40K in dead stock we'd been ignoring and built a clearance plan to liquidate it. That cash went straight back into products we could actually sell."
Paige Henderson Owner, Consumer Goods"Our inventory never matched our financials, so our margins were guesswork. Ledger Labs rebuilt the valuation under ASPE, and now our COGS is finally accurate."
Jason Atkinson CFO, Manufacturing"Importing from overseas wrecked our landed-cost math. They built duties and CAD conversion right into our costing, and suddenly we knew our real margins per SKU."
Emily Spencer Managing Director, Distribution"Gary and the team understood our supply chain better than we did. Within weeks, our reorder points were dialed in, and we stopped both stocking out and overbuying."
Madison Clarke CEO & Founder, RetailA financial controller owns the accounting function, month-end close, financial statement preparation, reconciliations, internal controls, and reporting. Where a bookkeeper records transactions and a CFO sets strategy, a controller sits in between: making sure the books are accurate, the close is on time, and the numbers are defensible for lenders, auditors, and leadership.
