The Chartered Professional Accountants of British Columbia has honoured Prince George’s Stan Mitchell with a fellowship designation for his outstanding professional achievements and contributions to his community.
Although now retired, Mitchell continues to lend his financial knowledge to the Canada North Resources Expo and Canadian Bioeconomy Conference and Exhibition, and assists local media in interpreting and reporting on economic-related events.
Mitchell joined KPMG in 1985, eventually serving as partner in charge of the Prince George tax practice from 2011 until retiring in 2021.
During his tenure, he provided tax expertise on diverse topics including estate planning, compliance, and business succession. Also a specialist on Indigenous tax, Mitchell interpreted fiscal and taxation aspects of contemporary treaties to advise Indigenous clients.
Mitchell has also served extensively with CPABC, acting as a spokesperson and contributor to CPABC’s BC Check Up (2006-present) and participating in CRA liaison meetings on behalf of the organization.
“We are pleased to honour Stan with a fellowship designation. With his wide and impressive range of skills and experiences, he represents the very best of our profession. He is truly deserving of this recognition,” CPABC president Lori Mathison said.
