Do you have a will? More than 50% of Canadians admit they don't have one. A will ensures that your wishes are carried out after you're gone. It is never too early to write your will! Join the Justice Education Society and Lawyer Chanelle Gilbert virtually for an hour long presentation about the basics of will writing, what to include in your will, who to choose as your witnesses and executors, and when to get legal assistance. Witness requirement changes due to COVID-19 will also be discussed.
