For an Ontario Will to be valid, it must be signed by the testator and be witnessed by two people who are not beneficiaries under the Will.
A Holograph Will is an exception to these formal requirements.
Holograph Wills must be entirely handwritten and signed by the testator. No witnesses are required. It will not be valid if any portion of it is typewritten or otherwise not entirely in the testator's handwriting.
