Life Insurance
We provide life insurance where it is required, and have access to all major life insurance companies in Canada. Our freedom to search the market allows us to make an objective and unbiased recommendation. We will conduct a thorough insurance needs analysis before any recommendation is made. All traditional life insurance products are available through our office, including term insurance, whole life, term to age 100, and universal life.

Disability Insurance
Disability protection is especially important to self-employed individuals and professionals in order to protect their most valuable asset - their ability to produce an income. We have access to some of the very best protection plans available, so you can properly protect your lifestyle should you experience a major illness or injury.

Critical Illness Insurance
With medical advances taking place, Canadians are surviving illness that were previously fatal. However, a critical illness also presents new expenses such as out of province treatments, prescription drugs, home renovations, and so on. We provide critical illness plans that may provide a significant "tax-free" lump sum of money to guard against the cost associated with survival.

Long Term Care Plans
Canada is an aging nation, and senior citizens represent the fastest growing segment of our society. The demand for long term care is going to increase dramatically in the years ahead, and this will create new expenses. We offer long term care plans to assist with such expenses. Let us find the plan that is right for you.

Segregated Funds
Many investors want the returns associated with mutual funds, but have an aversion to the "ups and downs" of the market. For this kind of investor, we offer Segregated Funds, which come with certain guarantees on principal and the ability to reset and lock in growth. Also, Segregated Funds by-pass Probate expenses and offer creditor protection.

Guaranteed Investment Accounts
As an alternative to the traditional bank GIC, Guaranteed Investment Accounts (GIAs) offered by insurance companies are popular for offering a higher interest rate without having your money "locked up" for a long period of time. With a GIA, you have ready access to your money. They also avoid Probate, and offer creditor protection. If you are a GIC investor, consider the advantages of a GIA.

Prescribed Annuities
For investors with large non-registered investments, a prescribed life annuity may be a very attractive investment option. This type of annuity typically provides a high guaranteed rate of return. Since a portion of the return is considered principal, the tax treatment may be very favourable. We provide prescribed and other annuities from major companies. Call for a quote.
