2023 is just around the corner.Â
And while the New Year brings new beginnings, it’s also a time to reflect on the last 12 months.
To celebrate the end of 2022, we thought we’d unwrap some of the top ÐßÐßÊÓƵ milestones from the last year. And you might even find that you were a part of some of them!

20,200+ Pets included in their ±è²¹·É°ù±ð²Ô³Ù²õ’ wills
That’s a lot of pets with a plan!
Your furry friends are family. Putting them in your will helps make sure there’s a plan in place in the event the unexpected happens. We’re proud to say that over 20,200 pets were included in ÐßÐßÊÓƵ documents this year.
But we can do better! With alone in Canadian households, this means there are still millions of pets that could be left vulnerable if their owners passed away. From choosing a pet guardian to leaving a pet trust, make sure you take a few moments to make a plan for your pets in your will.
$11+ Million left in legacy gifts
A legacy gift is a charitable donation left in a will. And it's one of the best ways to make an impact–even after you’re gone.
In 2022, ÐßÐßÊÓƵ customers left over $11 million in specific gifts in their ÐßÐßÊÓƵ wills. This number grows even larger when we add in gifts that are part of residual estates.Â
That’s well over $11 million that will help charities across Canada achieve their future goals and make a lasting impact on future generations.
So if you left a charitable gift in your will this year, know that you’re part of a legacy that will live on forever.
350+ 5 star ÐßÐßÊÓƵ reviewsÂ
Every 5-star review means that we’ve helped another Canadian successfully tackle their estate plan. And we couldn’t do it without you!
We love it when you leave a review for us–good or bad! It allows us to improve and gets us one step closer to our mission of helping every Canadian create their legal will.Â
