BMO Insurance's EasyOne Life Plan is available through BMO's call centre. The plan is an alternative to their Guaranteed Life Plus Plan and has the following features:
- Coverge takes effect from day one, unlike BMO's Guaranteed Life Plus Plan.
- Face amounts range from $2,500 to $15,000.
- Smokers and non-smokers get the same rate.
- Applicants must be between ages 50 to 75.
Advantages
- Level premiums guaranteed to never increase and the premiums are lower than BMO's Guaranteed Life Plus Plan.
- Coverage takes effect from day one.
Disadvantages
- Unlike the Guaranteed Life Plus Plan, there is no built-in accidental death coverage.
- The maximum face amount is only $15,000.
- While better than the Guaranteed Life Plus Plan, it is still uncompetitive relative to primary non-medical life insurance carriers, especially among non-smokers.
The pricing of BMO's EasyOne non-medical life insurance plan for a 60-year-old, female non-smoker is $72/month. The equivalent coverage with Assumption Life's Golden Protection Plan is $51.45/month. It also pays out double if the insured dies by accident. Canada Protection Plan's Simplified Life Plan is $50.63/month.

Hi Shirley,
Thanks for the note - I will email you the application questions and some more details now.
Im a 59 yr old smoking male diagnosed with squamous cell carcenoma of the tongue. Went thru treatments(radiation and chemo) 3 months ago and have been told treatments ere succesfull. Am I insurable and if so for what amount premium and would there be an exclusion if I died fro this cancer
Hi Arnie,
Thanks for the note. Based on your note BMO Guaranteed Life Plus (which is only sold directly through BMO might a good fit) Their pricing can be seen in the attached article http://lsminsurance.ca/life-insurance-canada/2009/12/bmo-life-plus-pricing-chart.
It is likely that you only qualify for a guaranteed issue plan (no medical tests and no health questions) rather than a simplified issue plan (no medical tests and 3 to 12 health questions).
