What powers would I have as trustee for my father, for example?

According to the Alberta Dependent Adults Act, you would have the following powers:

• the right to take possession and control of all the real and personal property of your father;
• the right to manage, handle, administer, sell, dispose of or otherwise deal with the estate just as your father could have done if he were able to make reasonable judgments with respect to his estate.
