As a licensed Funeral Director in Ontario I have found that many people are not aware of their rights as a consumer when buying funeral services. Many people are not aware that there is a regulatory body where they can file complaints if they have been mistreated. Over the past 20 years, I have strived to be a voice for the consumer as well as Funeral Directors who have opened businesses that represent Funeral Home alternatives designed to assist the consumer by providing dignified, affordable options.
The regulatory body and the funeral industry have worked together to strengthen the grip Funeral Homes have on the consumer's wallet.
It is our intent to have this website serve as a source of information for interested consumers. We want to assist consumers in filing complaints and provide them with updated knowledge on how the Funeral Industry is using legislation to strengthen their monopoly and eliminate business that would compete with Funeral Homes.
