Cremation and Family-Led Deathcare Talking Points
The CDC-ON legislative committee has just completed a survey of all crematories in Ontario, asking whether or not they would accept a body for cremation directly from next of kin (without funeral director involvement). We’ve developed this resource sheet, Cremation and Family-Led Deathcare Talking Points for Ontario families, to aid in talking to crematories.
