Effective date: 18 May 2026
These Terms govern your use of canadagreenburial.ca ("this site"). By visiting the site, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.
Canada Green Burial is a free, independent informational directory. We do not sell anything, charge any fees, or accept paid listings or advertising. Use of the site is at no cost and entirely at your own discretion.
Information on This Site Is Provided in Good Faith
The directory of cemeteries, the articles in the blog, and the descriptions on this site are compiled from publicly available information and our own independent research. We make a genuine effort to be accurate. However:
- Cemetery policies, fees, available capacity, and operating hours change over time.
- New green burial sites open and others close or change ownership.
- Some information may be incomplete, out of date, or — despite our care — incorrect.
Before making any arrangements with a cemetery listed on this site, you must verify the current details directly with that cemetery. Do not rely on this site alone to plan a burial. Call the cemetery, speak with their staff, and confirm everything that matters to you in writing.
Not Professional Advice
Nothing on this site constitutes legal, medical, financial, or funeral-planning advice. The articles and guides are general information only and are not a substitute for professional advice tailored to your particular circumstances. Funeral arrangements, burial planning, and end-of-life decisions can have legal and financial consequences that vary by province and by individual situation. You should consult appropriate professionals — a licensed funeral director, a lawyer, an estate planner — for advice specific to your situation.
No Affiliation with Listed Cemeteries
Canada Green Burial is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any of the cemeteries, organisations, or businesses listed in the directory. Inclusion in the directory is not a recommendation or endorsement; it simply reflects that the cemetery appears to meet our criteria for natural burial based on publicly available information.
We do not accept payment for listings. We do not accept payment for favourable coverage. No cemetery has any commercial relationship with this site.
External Links
This site links to external websites, including cemetery websites and other resources. We are not responsible for the content, accuracy, or practices of any external site. Following an external link is at your own risk.

Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by Canadian law, Canada Green Burial and its operators are not liable for any loss, damage, or harm — direct or indirect — arising from your use of this site or from reliance on information found here. Funeral and burial decisions are significant, and you bear responsibility for verifying the information you rely on.
This limitation does not apply where it would be prohibited by applicable consumer protection law in your province.
Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. The "effective date" at the top of this page indicates when they were last revised. Continued use of the site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein. Any dispute arising from these Terms or your use of the site shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Ontario, except where Canadian consumer protection law grants you the right to bring a claim in your home province.
Contact
For privacy-related inquiries, see the Privacy Policy. For other matters, please understand that Canada Green Burial does not maintain a general contact channel; if a listed cemetery's information appears to be inaccurate, the most effective step is to verify with the cemetery itself.
