Notary Public
BC Notaries are governed by the Notaries Act of BC and the discipline of their professional society. Today, the position of Notary as a member of one of the branches of the legal profession is sanctioned and safeguarded by law. BC Notaries are unique in North America, providing non-contentious legal services to the public.
The professional work of a Notary is covered by an insurance plan that protects the public.
The average age of a BC Notary is 43; 55 percent are women. BC Notaries reflect many ethnic backgrounds and languages. Notaries in BC put a high priority on service to their local communities. Over one third are involved in fundraising and social service, over one third in business associations, and more than 30 percent are active in youth sports and recreation.
