About Paul

After 30 plus years building relationships and honing his skill through continued education and experience, Paul and his team of professionals work together to ensure that clients receive timely, relevant financial information to not only stay in compliance with regulators and the government, but to thrive and build a financially successful business.

Paul’s exposure to a professional business environment was gained through experience at a multi-national accounting firm, where the founder’s motto “Think straight, talk straight” became a cornerstone in Paul’s career. Leaving the firm to work for a client, Paul soon decided after earning his Chartered Accountant designation, that private practice was his calling. He appreciated the personal interactions with colleagues and clients, sharing long-term personal beliefs and business strategies, for mutual benefit.

Paul is thankful for the opportunities afforded him in living the majority of his life in the Greater Toronto Area. However, more of a positive impact in his life came as a teenager when he moved with his family to the north, where he met Liz, his spouse-to-be and received a university education.

I have known Paul Stainton since the inception of my architectural practice(Venchiarutti Gagliardi Architect Inc.) in 1998. For 25 years, Paul has consistently provided excellent service, prudent accounting advice concerning my financial affairs, growing my practice, and tax matters. When you start a practice, you invariably need 2 key players: a good solicitor and a good accountant. Paul is one of them.
