common law vs marriage in Ontario


My partner and i have been together for 19 years. We have 4 children who are all teenagers. We are not married, but common law.As we are getting older now are there any benefits to getting married at this point? For example, if my partner gets very sick, as his common law wife, do i have the same legal rights as a married wife would as far as medical stuff would go? Or if my partner were to pass away, am i just as entitled to his body as a married wife would?
