As noted in an earlier post, legislative changes effective January 1, 2015 brought important changes in the role of an executor. You need to be aware of these if you are an executor and you also need to consider them when naming the person who is to be executor of your will. For a useful summary of these new rules (provided by OCRA and passed along by Ruth Tracy), please see http://www.dgfs.ca/Probate_Update_2015.pdf.
