Canada Wills & Estate Plans
Create a Legally Valid Estate Plan and Protect Your Family’s Future
![]()
Planning ahead is one of the most important steps you can take to protect your loved ones, preserve your assets, and ensure your wishes are carried out exactly as intended.
Our professionally prepared Wills and Estate Planning forms for Canadian residents make it simple and affordable to create a complete estate plan from the comfort of your home — without the high cost of hiring a lawyer.
Whether you are preparing your first will, choosing an executor, appointing guardians for minor children, or organizing your estate for the future, these legal document packages help Canadians take control with confidence.
Why Estate Planning Matters for Every Canadian
Many people assume estate planning is only necessary for retirees or individuals with significant wealth. In reality, every Canadian adult, regardless of age or income level, should have a legally valid estate plan in place.
Without proper documentation:
- Provincial intestacy laws may determine who inherits your assets.
- Family members may face delays and additional legal expenses.
- Courts may decide who manages your estate.
- Minor children may be left without clearly designated guardians.
- Loved ones may face unnecessary stress during an already difficult time.
A properly prepared estate plan helps avoid uncertainty and gives your family clear legal direction when it matters most.
Professionally Drafted Legal Forms Created for Compliance with Canadian Laws
Unlike generic online templates or AI-generated documents, our estate planning packages are professionally drafted by experienced legal practitioners and designed specifically for Canadian legal requirements.
Every package is written to be:
- Legally compliant
- Practical and easy to complete
- Comprehensive and professionally structured
- Designed for real-world legal use across Canada
These are not AI-generated forms. They are carefully prepared legal documents designed to help Canadians create estate plans with confidence.
Estate Planning Packages Tailored for Every Province and Territory
Canada’s estate planning laws can vary significantly between provinces and territories.
Our document packages are specifically designed to comply with the laws and legal requirements of each province and territory of Canada.
This ensures you receive estate planning documents relevant to the laws where you live.
Please note: Quebec civil law differs significantly from other parts of Canada and is not currently included in the estate planning kits. However, we do offer a French-language version of the Canadian will kit, for those who require documentation in French.
What Is Included in Each Canadian Estate Planning Kit?
Each package contains the essential legal forms and guidance needed to help you organize your estate and document your wishes properly.
Depending on the package selected, your estate planning forms may include:
1. Last Will and Testament
Create a legally valid will that clearly outlines:
- Who will inherit your assets
- How your estate should be distributed

3. Guardian Designation for Minor Children
If you have children, estate planning becomes even more important.
Our forms help parents document:
- Who should care for minor children
- Backup guardian appointments
- Important family considerations that may affect guardianship decisions
Having clear instructions in place can help avoid court disputes and uncertainty.
4. Estate Planning Checklists and Planning Worksheets
Estate planning involves more than just writing your will.
Each package includes helpful planning tools covering:
- Inventory of personal property
- List of digital assets and online accounts
- Property ownership records
- Beneficiary review checklists
- Debt and liability summaries
- Family planning considerations
- Estate organization worksheets
These resources make the process easier and help ensure nothing important is overlooked.

Each estate planning package contains guidance on:
- How to complete the documents

What is included in the Saskatchewan Estate Planning Package?
Designed specifically for Saskatchewan residents, this convenient downloadable package includes the following professionally prepared templates:
1. Saskatchewan Power of Attorney for Property Attorney
The Power of Attorney for Property Attorney lets you name someone you trust to manage your property and financial affairs on your behalf, if you are unable to or you choose not to manage them yourself.
The powers your attorney is entrusted with can include:
- Managing bank accounts, stocks, bonds, and other investments
- Insurance, pensions, annuities, trusts
- Vehicles and other personal property
- RRSPs and RRIFs, term deposits, GICs
- Paying bills and expenses
- Handling real estate, farm land and other property matters
- Managing business and financial transactions
- Filing tax returns
- Dealing with government agencies and other organizations
- Using your property to provide support for your spouse and dependents
The Power of Attorney for Property Attorney is an important part of a Saskatchewan estate plan because it allows you to choose who will act on your behalf rather than leaving decisions to be made without your input.
2. Saskatchewan Power of Attorney for Personal Attorney
This Saskatchewan Power of Attorney for Personal Attorney form allows you to name an agent to make personal care and lifestyle decisions for you, which can include:
- Housing decisions (choosing where you will live)
- Social activities you can take part in
- Education — what sort of education or training you will receive
- Any other personal care or lifestyle decisions you choose to give your agent authority over.
3. Saskatchewan Power of Attorney for Personal and Property Attorney
This is a combination form that combines both of the previous Power of Attorney forms into one. It lets you name an agent to make both property / financial and personal care decisions for you. You can use this form if you are going to name the same person to act for you in both respects, while the separate Power of Attorney forms can be used if you want to appoint different people to act in the separate capacities.
4. Saskatchewan Revocation of Power of Attorney Form
This Revocation of Power of Attorney form allows you to formally cancel a previously granted Power of Attorney.
Use this document when you want to terminate an existing appointment and no longer wish the named attorney to have authority to act on your behalf.
5. Saskatchewan Advance Health Care Directive
The Health Care Directives and Substitute Health Care Decision Makers Act allows you to put your health care wishes and instructions into a separate health care directive or to appoint a proxy to make those decisions on your behalf.
The Saskatchewan Advance Health Care Directive form gives you an opportunity to put your wishes regarding medical treatment and health care decisions in writing and name a proxy to make those decisions for you, in the event you become unable to communicate those instructions.
These instructions can include your wishes about certain treatments and procedures, including:
- artificial life support
- resuscitation
- tube feeding and hydration
- chemotherapy and radiation
- medications
- blood transfusions
- surgery
- diagnostic tests
Making a Saskatchewan Advance Health Care Directive clarifies your wishes and instructions for your health care providers and your family and loved ones.

Why do you need to prepare an estate plan?
Without a plan, a provincial or territorial court will decide who distributes your estate, and the laws of succession will dictate how and to whom your estate assets are distributed.
When you make a will, a power of attorney, and a personal directive, the decisions are yours. For example,:
- You decide how your estate is divided and distributed.
- You name who will manage your estate.
- You decide who will act as guardian for minor children or dependents (as applicable).
- You decide who will pay your bills and manage your finances if you become incapable.
- You decide who will make medical and lifestyle choices for you if you cannot make those choices yourself.
