Alternatives were very professional and helpful in making arrangements after my father's death. We appreciated the fact that they respected our desire for simplicity and did not push us to spend more. Lorne made several trips to our house to help us with arrangements, which was greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Very good experience with Lorne from start to finish. He was very thorough and professional.
We had the pleasure of providing audio visual services beside Alternative Funeral & Cremation services this week at Genesis Arena for a celebration of life. They certainly do provide an alternative creative service. The large memorial was a very special event hosted in a challenging but very unique hockey venue. It was a very memorable experience. We had a very good experience working with this highly professional creative company.
I understand this is a single incident that happened with my family, and I did not address it at the time it occurred to be sensitive to our grieving household. This incident tainted my entire experience, just because of how inappropriate I found it to be. When going through the costs and fees of cremation, there are few listed. Among the ones you’d expect, one line item was specifically identified by the representative, “carbon tax”. On the surface, I see how the line item may seem unworthy of my concern. A second thought does ask, why would your business include that particular tax as a fee to your services? Wouldn’t one just increase the cost of the services to accommodate that tax and simplify your bill? My position within businesses I help oversee are not required, nor recommended, to include “carbon tax” on our invoices. I can only think that you put that line item on the invoice to make a statement. To specifically identify the tax so that folks were aware of the impact of the tax is on our good and services, which isn’t a requirement. It would be like adding “payroll tax” to your invoice as a line item. Totally unworthy of consideration unless there was a statement behind the inclusion. In short, it’s totally insensitive to make a bill for cremation a political statement, especially when these families are grieving as much as we are.
