A Last Will only determines what happens to your property after you have passed.
A Power of Attorney is used to appoint someone to manage your property and your medical care if you are incapable. It is no longer valid after death.
In some ways, having an Attorney who can protect you while you are still living is even more important that having a will.

You can definitely name somebody in your last will to have custody and guardianship of your minor children in the event both of the parents pass away.
Now, the appointment you make in you last will is temporary. That person will eventually need to apply to the court to be appointed as a permanent guardian. But, when they make that application, the court will look very closely on who you named in your last will, and factor that in the decision about who should be the permanent guardian of your children.

Can an employer significantly change your job duties while you are on parental leave?
Pursuant to the Employment Standards Act, in most cases, an employee who takes pregnancy/parental leave is entitled to return to the same role or a comparable role the employee had before the leave began, or a comparable role if the employee’s former position no longer exists.
If an employee experiences significant changes to the terms of their employment, then they may be entitled to bring a claim for constructive dismissal.
Has your role been improperly changed following a parental leave?
