Our dedicated public sector team provides specialized audit and advisory services designed to help government organizations meet legislative requirements, strengthen financial governance, and deliver value to the communities they serve.

Supporting Alberta’s Communities

We proudly partner with more than 35 public sector entities across Alberta, including municipalities, counties, towns, villages, summer villages, and Indigenous governments, to provide reliable and timely financial reporting.

Our comprehensive public sector services include:

• Annual financial statement audits in accordance with Canadian Auditing Standards and PSAS

• Preparation and submission of Alberta’s Municipal Financial Information Return (MFIR)

• Additional assurance engagements, including Local Authorities Pension Plan (LAPP) audits, FCSS reviews, grant compliance audits, and reporting for community organizations such as libraries and recreation boards

• Presentation of audited financial statements directly to municipal councils and governing bodies

Specialized Services for Indigenous Governments

We are proud to support First Nations and Indigenous governments with tailored audit and advisory solutions, including financial audits for reservations as defined under federal legislation. Our team understands the unique governance structures, reporting frameworks, and cultural priorities of Indigenous communities and is committed to helping them build capacity, meet compliance standards, and achieve long-term financial sustainability.
