Preparing your mandate in three steps

Nine in ten Québecers would want a loved one—a spouse, family member, or friend—to make decisions about their person and their property if they were to become incapable (PDF - in French). To make sure that’s what happens, you can choose the person right now who will take care of you should you become temporarily or permanently disabled because of an illness or accident. If prepared while you are completely lucid, the protection mandate is a document that allows you to appoint one or more people to take care of you and your property in the event you are declared incapable. Find out more about the three steps in preparing your protection mandate for free.
