My memory may be incorrect on this, but I recall reading that a holograph will isn’t legal in all provinces. For example, I believe BC you are required to have a will with two witnesses.

Just something to check on before you try to use it.

A will is important.

A holograph will might not require a witness, but it’s always better to have one in the event the will is contested. Furthermore, the witness does not need to know the details in the will but just attest that you are the one who signed the and that you seemed to have all your head.
