<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black">A new estate planning client has oil/mineral lease/rights on property in Canada. My general understanding is that in Canada, one cannot use a revocable living trust to transfer
these rights to one’s heirs. How can I set this up so the lease transfers to their heirs on death without a lot of hassle, such as a probate proceeding in Canada?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
