Ask Tanya
What does "tax-efficient insurance strategy" actually mean?+
It means structuring life insurance so it does more than protect — using tools like permanent policies, corporate ownership, and the Capital Dividend Account to help wealth grow and transfer with fewer tax costs along the way.
Do I need to be a business owner to work with Tanya?+
No. While corporate and estate strategies are a specialty, Tanya also works with families and professionals who want life insurance, critical illness coverage, and long-term protection planning.
Will you work with my accountant and lawyer?+
Yes — collaboration is central to the practice. Tanya coordinates with your existing professional team so every strategy fits your complete financial picture.
Which provinces do you serve?+
Tanya is licensed in Alberta, British Columbia, and Ontario, and works with clients across all three provinces — with her home base in Grande Prairie, Alberta.
