The deceased wrote out his wishes but they weren witnessed. Is a video Will valid?
Neither the deceased’s unwitnessed written wishes nor a video Will is valid if made in BC. In BC, a Will must be in writing, signed and witnessed by at least two people present at the same time the testator signs the Will. The witnesses must both be in the room at the time the Will is signed. Exceptions exist only for armed forces personnel and merchant mariners on active service. If the Will was made outside BC, you should consult a lawyer, as different rules may apply.
