As affordability challenges persist in major cities, Canadians are getting creative with their homeownership goals. According to a new RE/MAX Canada report, recreational properties are gaining traction as a smart and accessible way to enter the market, particularly among younger buyers.

REMAX Canada says younger buyers are helping drive demand as some Canadians view recreational properties as both a wealth strategy and a possible first step into homeownership.

Canadians care about their legacy, but many haven’t taken the next step.

IG Wealth Management’s latest estate planning study shows that while 84% of Canadians say estate planning is important, fewer than half actually have a plan in place.

There’s also a gap in communication. Although 68% believe charitable giving should be included, only 40% have had conversations about it.

That’s where we come in. At IG, we help you turn intention into action - with personalized strategies to protect your legacy, support the causes you care about, and bring clarity to your wishes.

Good health isn’t something we question - until life changes suddenly. A major illness can bring unexpected costs and financial strain. Critical illness insurance provides a lump-sum benefit when you need it most, giving you flexibility and peace of mind during a difficult time. Let’s chat about whether this coverage makes sense for you.
