Where in Canada?
I don't know about other Canadian provinces but British Columbia has deaths online to 1995, with many, especially the more recent ones, with images.
ChristineResearching:
HOEY (Fermanagh, other Ulster counties and Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada) BANNIGAN and FOX (Ballyshannon, Donegal, Ireland and Portland, Maine, USA) REYNOLDS, McSHEA, PATTERSON and GOAN (Corker and Creevy, Ballyshannon, Donegal, Ireland) DYER (Belfast and Ballymacarrett) SLEVIN and TIMONEY (Fermanagh) BARNETT (Ballagh, Tyrone and Strangford, Down)

The quick answer is yes and no.
Anyone can apply, although you may have to prove how you are related, and you do need the date of death.
Just do a google search on Ontario and death certificates, it should pull up some info for you.

Hi Val,
Did you try www.SeviceOntario.ca
I am just going to make myself a cuppa, and then get back to you, but I think it is legit. They will also do a search - for a fee, of course. And you can order online.

Hi Val,
The above site is legit. I looked up the address (on the site) that you can post an application to, and it is the same address in my 1994 copy of ' In Search of your Canadian Roots"!
Looking for wills is difficult. Ontario doesn't have a central depository - neither does BC. So wills are kept at the lawyers, and I paid for mine to be deposited in Victoria, as a back up. Many people keep theirs at home, and of course, many still don't have wills.
I think that in Ontario you can deposit a will at the local courthouse, but I am not very clear on that.

Hi Galloway Lass,
Each province works independently from each other. BC was one of the first to start putting BMDS online, other have been a little slower. Plus each province has a somewhat different policy on privacy.
Basically, any event that is fairly recent will be a bit of a challenge.
ancestry.ca has a canadian obituary index 1898- 2015
For stand alone sites - there is the Ontario Cementery Finding Aid, Ontario Vital Statistics Project.
You can also google and see if your name has an online obituary through a funeral home.
I have some spare time today, if you would like me to have a bash,

Hi GL,
This is what I have searched:
ancestry.ca - found nothing except on Canada Voters Lists 1935- 1980
1972 - this was the last date
75 Sargent Road, Halton, Ontario
James Hiddleston, ret, was a labourer
Mrs Selina , brake press operator
Richard , driver
Miss Zingra, typist
Nothing for Ontario Vital Statistics Project, Ontario Cemetery Finding Aid, Haltonlifenews.ca, Canadian Obituaries, or billion graves.
Halton -Peel Branch of OGS
haltonpeel@ogs.on.ca
They do have lists of graveyard transcriptions that are not online yet. I think that if they were buried it would be at Greenwood Cemetery, Halton. The Town of Halton looks after various cemeteries, but will not do genealogical lookups.
Halton Hills Public Library
http:www.hhpl.on.ca
askus@haltonhills.ca
They carry newspapers, and may do a look up.
I did find this within the Halton Hills library.
news.halinet.on.ca
25 October 1950 page 1
Georgetown Herald
Hiddleston- Heffer
Wedding at Knox Church. Selina had only been in Canada for a week!
There were other articles upto 1974- birthday parties etc.
Sorry I couldn't have been of more help,
