Made for Canada
A Canadian obituary site for families, communities, and funeral homes.
CanObits helps families post an obituary online in Canada without needing to build a website, manage a social media thread, or ask relatives to search through scattered messages.
Every page is structured around the information people actually need: the obituary, dates, photos, funeral or celebration of life details, livestream links, guestbook memories, and a clear way to share the page.
The result is a memorial page that is respectful for close family, practical for guests, and easier for search engines to understand than an image-only notice or a short social post.
Frequently asked
Questions families ask before publishing.
Can I post an obituary online for free?

Do I need a credit card to start?
No. The free obituary page does not require a credit card, setup fee, or trial signup.
What can I include on the obituary page?
You can include the obituary, birth and passing dates, photos, service details, livestream information, and guestbook memories.
Is CanObits only for Canada?
CanObits is built for Canadian families and communities, with Canadian hosting, English and French support, and Canada-focused obituary pages.
Do you support French obituary pages?
Yes. Pages can be created in English, French, or both, so family can share in the language that fits them best.
What if I do not have every detail yet?
You can start with the basics and add more later. Many families publish the obituary first, then update service details, photos, or guestbook settings when ready.
