We're here to help!
Linda Barney, CPB
Linda is our top dog and a certified professional bookkeeper. Her accounting journey began in 1997 when she graduated with honours from all 3 programs Accounting, Computers and Business Administration from the Toronto School of Business. Linda has worked in the IT industry and also spent many years working as a mechanic along with keeping the books. Linda opened Barney Bookkeeping originally in 2007 but switched gears when she was offered a prestigious position at a large accounting firm where she managed a team of bookkeepers and looked after audits. After almost 10 years knee-deep in paperwork, she knew there had to be a better way. Barney Bookkeeping reopened in 2018 as a paperless accounting firm. Linda now specializes in cloud technology and is Advanced Certified in Quickbooks Online and Xero. Over the years Linda has been responsible for many different aspects of multiple client businesses including but not limited to CRA compliance, Provincial Tax, and Payroll in the Provinces of Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, and British Columbia. Linda’s vast knowledge of different provincial requirements can help offer strategic advice and support to implement and maintain regulatory compliance. She is a trusted advisor and team leader. Linda works with business owners who want to grow their businesses and spend less time on bookkeeping and compliance. Relationships are essential in this industry and Linda places a high value on trust and communication with clients.
