Did you know that more than 50 per cent of Canadians do not have a Will? A carefully written Will ensures that your assets can be distributed according to your wishes, after your death. This document must be signed by you and witnessed. By taking the time now to consider your wishes and write them down, you provide such an important planning tool for the financial security of your loved ones. Financial advisors and estate lawyers recommend that everyone should have a Will. Age is not a factor. If you have assets, you should have a Will. Are you prepared? If not, there are experts who can help.<\/p>\n

Through careful planning, you can enhance your financial benefits, while creating a legacy of hope for future generations. Bequests in your Will allow you to continue to support the causes that are important to you during your lifetime. Bequests often have the largest impact when you direct a portion, or percentage, of your estate to a cause, achieving tax savings for your estate.<\/p>\n
