À propos de ce contenu audio
In this episode of Sorry For Your Loss, we unpack how Ontario’s death-care system works—and why strong consumer protections matter when families are grieving.
First, Laura Tamblyn Watts, CEO of CanAge and consumer representative on the BAO board, explains what rights Ontarians have, the real costs of funerals and cremations, and why planning ahead can prevent stress and overspending. Then, Jim Cassimatis, former Registrar of the Bereavement Authority of Ontario, takes us inside the regulator’s role: how complaints are handled, what rules providers must follow, and the safeguards in place to ensure fairness and transparency.
