Great-West Life currently operates as a core component of The Canada Life Assurance Company. Following the 2020 corporate integration, it ceased functioning as a distinct standalone brand and became fully unified with London Life and Canada Life under the Canada Life corporate identity. The organization functions as a major provider of life, health, and disability insurance, as well as retirement and investment solutions for individuals and groups across Canada. Policyholders continue to access their benefits, group dental plans, and retirement information through Canada Life's integrated digital portals, ensuring continuity of service and coverage under the new, unified brand.
