You might be in Ag if you’re excited to show people the largest tap root you’ve ever pulled 😂
Scammers are thriving. PSA: The CRA will NEVER send anything like this. Typically they’ll send a letter, email telling you there’s a letter on your account, or they’ll call. If you aren’t sure if a call is a scam or not, hang up and call the number on the letter.
With tax season coming in fast it's important to recognize that not all accountants are equal.
Does you accountant ask you questions?
If not, consider looking for a new one. 🧵
Taxes shouldn't be reactive. A good accountant will help you be proactive. Tax planning starts on Jan 1st, not Feb 27th of the following year when you're panic trying to decide how much money to put into your RRSP.

I’m closing the first chapter of my career. Here are 5 lessons I learned at my first job out of University. 🧵
4) Good colleagues are half the battle. If you’re like me, you’ll often spend more time with your colleagues than your spouse. They can make or break the job. Don’t be afraid to learn about them personally.
Happy Canadian Ag Day! While I’m not directly on the farm anymore, I’m proud of my roots and fortune to be working with producers everyday! #CdnAgDay

We’re approaching finals season for post secondary students. If you have any students in your life, take a moment to send them an encouraging note. It could mean the world!

This is the first time in 6 years that I’m not going back to post secondary education. In honour of that I thought I’d share some of the most valuable lessons I learned throughout my post secondary career. 🧵
5) Grades don’t matter. Some careers are exceptions of course, but overall it’s insignificant. Networking will be more useful then a high GPA. That being said, choose what’s important to you. If you want a 4.0 then work for it. Nobody can take that away from you once earned!
