We are pleased to present the 2020 audit quality report of EY Canada, which reaffirms our commitment to continuously improving the quality of our audits and strengthening our system of quality control.
Our report highlights our data-first audit approach, which combines the strength of our technology and the skills of our people to audit more effectively. Our technology also enabled us to pivot quickly to a remote working environment in early 2020 to support our ability to continue to perform high-quality audits and provide COVID-19-related guidance. Our unwavering focus on sustainable audit quality enables us to navigate these uncertain times and to reimagine what our audits will look like in the future.
We welcome any comments and questions you may have about the matters discussed in this report. Please contact an EY Canada partner for more information.

As part of our commitment to serving the public interest, we have a responsibility to provide our stakeholders with an understanding of how we conduct our audits, how we maintain our independence, how we monitor our performance and what we are doing to continuously improve the quality of our audits. This annual quality report, which we have been publishing since 2013, is one way we provide that transparency.
