About Me

Barry Finlay
I am a Chartered Accountant and Certified Management Accountant and I had a great career in Canada's federal public service until retiring in 2004. I continue to consult periodically. In 2009, I climbed Mount Kilimanjaro at age 60 with my son Chris, and my family and I have raised close to $50,000 to help the children of Tanzania. I have written a book with Chris' input called, "Kilimanjaro and Beyond - A Life-Changing Journey." More information is available at www.plankilimanjaro.blogspot.com.
