He expresses his own opinions and delivers unfiltered advice for hard-working Canadians.
David currently operates his own personal finance training and e-Learning content development firm, plus offers On-Demand Seminars to CPA's everywhere across Canada.
He has made many television appearances including CITYtv, Breakfast Television, BNN, CBC NewsWorld, CTV and CFTO News, Rogers TV, CBC Venture and CHTV. David has also been featured on many local and national radio programs, including CBC Radio One.
