Note: Keep in mind that insurance licensing, legislation, and policies often vary by province and most certainly by country. The Canada Insurance Source website is a free information source provided by an insurance broker from the Niagara Region in Ontario. So use this site to gain a general understanding of insurance with your own area and situation in mind. Even residents of Ontario should keep in mind that this insurance information is general in nature and the policy wordings always take precedence. Make sure you review the "please read" page.
