In Saskatchewan, holograph wills are still legal. I don’t recommend it, but it is still legal.
Section 8 of The Wills Act, 1996, states:
Holograph Wills
8. A holograph will, wholly in the handwriting of the testator and signed by him or her, may be made without any further formality or any requirement as to the presence of or attestation or signature by a witness.
The reason I don’t recommend you try to create your own will is because you should get legal advice about the information to put in your will. Not having the right information can cost your estate thousands of dollars in unnecessary court applications.
