How we count
This site publishes four figures about itself on its home page. This page sets out exactly what each one counts, what it deliberately leaves out, and the arithmetic in full. Nothing here is typed by hand. Every figure is counted from the finished site by the program that builds it, on the day it is built, and a check refuses to publish the site if a figure and the thing it counts ever disagree.
| Line | Count |
|---|---|
| Pages built as index.html | 896 |
| Less the two home pages, which index the site rather than adding to it | −2 |
| Less the two site map pages, for the same reason | −2 |
| Less the confirmation pages, reached only after a form is sent | −8 |
| Less the retired addresses that hold nothing but a forward to a page already counted | −8 |
| Pages a reader can open, and the figure on the home page | 876 |
| of which English | 438 |
| of which French | 438 |
| Figure | Value | What it counts | What it omits |
|---|---|---|---|
| pages | 876 | Every page listed on the site map, in both languages | The twenty addresses in the table above |
| words | 2,530,000 | The article text of those pages, with the navigation, the right hand column, the forms and the standing disclosures removed first. Rounded down to the nearest ten thousand | Everything that is not the article. The unrounded count on this build was 2,539,091 |
| diagrams | 482 | Every diagram drawn for this site, counted by its own class in the markup | Photographs. Six pictures of a person were being counted as diagrams until 19 September 2026 |
| questions | 4,884 | Every question with a written answer, counted from the structured data a search engine reads | Nothing. The same questions are answered in both languages, so the figure is 2,442 distinct questions counted twice, which is said under the figure on the home page |
The figures above were produced by the build of 29 September 2026.
Why this page exists
A figure a reader cannot reproduce is a figure they are being asked to take on trust, and there is no reason they should. Anybody who wants to check these numbers can do so from the site itself, without asking us, in about ten minutes. The method is below.
What these figures are not
None of these figures is a claim about performance, about any outcome, or about whether anything on this site is suitable for any particular person. None of them is a comparison with any other practice, and none is offered as one. They describe the size of a library and nothing else. Nothing on this site is personalized advice, and reading it creates no professional relationship.
If you are checking this on behalf of somebody
If you are verifying this for a regulator, for a compliance department, for a news desk, or because you simply want to know, here is how to do it without our help.
- Open the site map. It lists every page on this site, grouped by subject, with a count beside each group. Add the group counts together. Do the same on the French site map. The two totals added together are the page figure on the home page. They will agree exactly, because they are the same count.
- The four figures are regenerated on every build of this site. The date of the build that produced the figures now showing is stated in the table above.
- If you find a figure on this site that you cannot reproduce, or that you believe is wrong, write to the address in the footer and say which one. A figure that cannot be defended will be corrected or removed, and we would rather hear it from you than not hear it.
A thirty-minute discovery meeting
A first conversation establishes whether this fits. No illustration is prepared and nothing is arranged.
Often the answer is no, and you will hear it during the call rather than in a proposal afterwards.
The form is on the discovery meeting page and takes a minute. It arranges a conversation. It is not advice, and nothing is being sold here.

Important disclosures
This page is education, not advice. The content is general information prepared by Canadian Wealth Creation Centre Inc. It does not take your circumstances into account and is not a recommendation to buy, hold or cancel any contract. CWCC is not registered with CIRO and does not provide securities advice. The firm places insurance in Quebec, Ontario, Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba and New Brunswick; clients elsewhere are served by advisors licensed in their province.
Nothing here was written with your file in front of us. Read it to understand the subject, then judge it against your own situation, ideally with someone who is licensed where you live and who has seen your numbers.
This is not tax advice, and the tax treatment depends on your own circumstances. The tax treatment described depends on the contract remaining exempt under the Income Tax Regulations and on the reader’s individual circumstances. A withdrawal, a surrender or a policy loan may be a disposition under the Income Tax Act, and amounts above the adjusted cost basis may be taxable in the year they occur. Tax rules change. Canadian Wealth Creation Centre Inc. is licensed in life and health insurance. It is not an accounting practice, it does not prepare returns, and nothing on this site is tax advice or an opinion on any reader’s tax position. Anything a reader intends to rely on should be confirmed with a professional accountant and against the current published rule of the Canada Revenue Agency and, in Quebec, Revenu Québec.
The tax result is not automatic and it is not unconditional. It rests on the contract staying within the Canadian rules and on your own situation. Before you rely on any of it, talk to an accountant who has actually worked with these contracts.
