The purpose of this fact sheet is to inform you of your rights.
It does not relieve the insurer or the distributor of their obligations to you.
LETS TALK INSURANCE!
ITS YOUR CHOICE
You are never required to purchase insurance:
that is offered by your distributor;
from a person who is assigned to you; or
to obtain a better interest rate or any other benet.
Even if you are required to be insured, you do not have to purchase the insurance that
is being offered. You can choose your insurance product and your insurer.
HOW TO CHOOSE
To choose the insurance product that’s right for you, we recommend that you read the summary
that describes the insurance product and that must be provided to you.
DISTRIBUTOR REMUNERATION
A portion of the amount you pay for the insurance will be paid to the distributor as remuneration.
The distributor must tell you when the remuneration exceeds 30% of that amount.
RIGHT TO CANCEL
The Act allows you to rescind an insurance contract, at no cost, within 10 days after the purchase of your
insurance. However, the insurer may grant you a longer period of time. After that time, fees may apply if
you cancel the insurance. Ask your distributor about the period of time granted to cancel it at no cost.
If the cost of the insurance is added to the nancing amount and you cancel the insurance, your monthly
nancing payments might not change. Instead, the refund could be used to shorten the nancing
period. Ask your distributor for details.
The Autorité des marchés nanciers can provide you with unbiased, objective information.

Temporary
Insurance
coverage for
Accidental Death
Benefit
If you die because of an accidental injury after BMO approves and funds your loan, but
before your application is approved or declined by Canada Life, Canada Life will pay to
BMO the amount of Insurance applied for on the application, subject to the maximum
insurable limit.
Life Insurance
Who is covered
by Life
Insurance?
You are covered if you die before the age of 70
Your prior coverage may be recognized when replacing or refinancing a loan. For details,
please refer to the sample certificate of insurance here:
https://www.canadalife.com/insurance/personal-insurance/creditor-insurance/distribution-

What is the
amount of the
benefit paid?
If you die, Canada Life will pay BMO the amount as more fully described below, up to a
maximum of $1 000 000:
For a commercial term loan:
If you applied for insurance coverage that is equal to the loan amount, the benefit
paid will be the balance of the loan on the date of your death (including accrued
interest up to a maximum of 60 days)
If you applied for insurance coverage that is a percentage of the loan amount, the
benefit paid is calculated by multiplying the percentage of coverage by the
outstanding balance owed to BMO on the date of your death (including accrued
interest for up to a maximum of 60 days)
Example: If you have selected to cover 25% of your $400,000 commercial
mortgage and your outstanding mortgage balance is $200,000 on the day you die,
the Life Insurance benefit paid is 25% of $200,000.
For an operating loan or line of credit:
If you applied for insurance coverage that is equal to the loan amount, the benefit
payment will be the authorized limit of the operating loan or line of credit,
regardless of the outstanding balance (including accrued interest up to a maximum
of 60 days)
