What Is Term Life Insurance?

Term life insurance provides coverage for a fixed period-usually 10, 20, or 30 years. If the policyholder passes away during the term, their beneficiaries receive a generally tax-free lump sum (under current Canadian tax rules). If the policy expires before a claim, coverage ends, though many plans offer renewal or conversion to permanent insurance.

  • Simple, transparent Coverage
  • Low premiums for high protection
  • Ideal for families, mortgages, and income replacement
