I encountered serious issues within Ontario’s probate system following my father’s passing. Despite attempts to report concerns—such as a funeral home issuing questionable documents used to transfer property rights (title) —I received no support from government bodies or local authorities. While abroad, I appointed the Public Guardian and Trustee to manage probate, but my request was declined despite written law. Delays from Service Ontario revealing my father’s long form death certificate (which was different from the one the funeral home created), along with unresponsive law enforcement, compounded these challenges. Legal Aid does not support probate matters, leaving low-income individuals without essential support in acquiring real estate of deceased parents or loved ones.
This experience revealed the challenges that can escalate for low-income and marginalized communities within the probate process. I am now raising funds to secure tax-exempt status for the Canada Poverty Relief Trust. Our mission is to build an online platform and mobile app for low-income individuals to protect assets, prevent probate barriers, and avoid corruption and fraud.
We work to leverage accessible legal resources, drive legal reform, and streamline affordable administrative processes through innovative tech solutions. By providing educational and self-help tools, we aim to support inheritance rights and enhance economic well-being in marginalized communities across Canada.
Join us in safeguarding our equity in real estate and assets, outside the burdensome and outdated probate system.
