Over the past 30 years, as a financial advisor, Gord has come to realize that regardless of their background, people seem to have similar financial goals. Some of the most common goals include providing an education for their children, traveling the world, having a comfortable retirement, and leaving a legacy for future generations.
His approach has always emphasized starting with the end in mind and helping individuals focus only on the things they can control. It may surprise you to know that, initially, several of his most successful clients felt confused and were unsure of what to do and who to trust when it came to their own financial situations.
Gord and his team build, maintain, and nurture long-term client relationships based upon personal interaction, individual attention, professionalism, and integrity.
Gord’s goal is to help clients build wealth through easy to follow investment and savings strategies, protect their loved ones via insurance and estate planning, and plan for retirement.
He is a CFP® professional and Chartered Investment Manager (CIM), who graduated from the University of Guelph with an Honours Bachelor of Commerce degree.
At Bellwether Family Wealth | Brooklin, we put ourselves at the centre of your financial affairs so that we can see the complete picture and ensure the advice and guidance you receive is in your best interest. We start by taking an in-depth look at every aspect of your financial life, and then we work with you to create a comprehensive plan that sets you on the best course to achieve your goals and dreams.
Traditionally, most people deal with different professionals for their investment, insurance, tax and estate planning needs. But doing so is not only time-consuming, it’s ineffective. Each professional you deal with will only have one piece of the puzzle. You may end up receiving conflicting opinions, or worse, advice in one area that may negatively impact another. When you work with Bellwether, you get a holistic approach that focuses on both the big picture and the details to protect your family tree.
“Money isn’t about numbers; it’s about achieving your goals. I didn’t think I could buy my ex-husband out of our home, or go back to school, or put my daughter through university, and now I’ve done all three.”

“I’ve given everything I have to invest, and I couldn’t be happier. Things go up and they go down, but I don’t bother about it. Trust leads to that confidence. Trust, and a paycheque every month.”
