I recently attended an estate planning seminar and wanted to share some general information that many families in Canada find helpful — especially before things become urgent.
This post is meant to give a high-level overview only. Estate planning can be complex, and everyone’s situation is different, so this is not legal or tax advice. If any of this applies to you, it’s important to speak directly with your estate lawyer and/or accountant.
What this guide covers (general overview)
Why having a will is especially important in Canada
What can happen if there is no will (probate basics)
General tax concepts such as deemed disposition

Please speak with a qualified estate lawyer and/or accountant before making any decisions.
