Ontario Wills and Estates #LawFact of the Day: Life Insurance and Your Estate


Life insurance policies that designate a beneficiary become that beneficiary's property on the day the insured dies. 

They don't become part of the insured’s Estate and they are not subjected to estate tax.

Speak to your insurer to designate or update your beneficiary under your policy. It's a critical step in your estate planning.

Wise Law's Family #LawFact of the Day: Same-Sex Marriage in Canada


The first same-sex marriage in Ontario occurred on January 14, 2001.

Its legality, along with the legality of many other same-sex marriages, was affirmed by the Ontario Court of Appeal on June 10, 2003 in a case called Halpern v. Canada.

Same-sex marriage and divorce have been recognized throughout Canada since July 20, 2005, when the Government of Canada passed the Civil Marriage Act, which newly defined marriage in a gender-neutral manner.
