Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When a person dies without a valid will in Canada, the province's law of descent and distribution becomes their will. This means that their property will be distributed according to the laws of the province in which they lived. It is important to note that this may not align with the person's preferences or intentions, so it is always recommended to have a valid will in place. Options A, B, C, and D are not accurate as the government does not confiscate property, the federal court does not decide distribution without a will, friends and relatives are not automatically entitled to the property, and local custom does not have legal authority over distribution.
