At what point in life does one start thinking about their eternal resting location? Will it be six feet under ground or an urn in a columbarium niche? If you are an obituary reader, you will have noticed that as per most wishes, cremation has taken place, with a celebration of life set to take place at a later date.
According to the Cremation Association of North America (CANA), out of the 306,468 deaths that occurred in Canada in 2020, 224,081 were cremated, accounting for 73.1 per cent of who agreed or had their family sign a cremation certificate. This is an increase from the 72.2 per cent cremation rate reported by CANA in 2019. In 2018, the cremation rate was 71.6 per cent, marginally lower than both proceeding years. There is no national cremation society in Canada.
