Posted some time back about how I'd read an article that our Ontario govt has again allowed the insurance co's to cut accident benefits back. Have you read the fine print on your renewal coverage? Yea, they've allowed them to make huge cuts to yours, mine and everyone else's accident benefits. Of course on top of the increase most are seeing yet again this year (after the lying and cheating bastards keep talking about premium rollbacks that never happen) you'll need to shell out on top of that to retain the level of coverage you had last year. I've spoken with several brokers looking for other quotes, all agree, anyone sticking with one million in liability is leaving themselves extremely vulnerable. The thought, with benefits cut way back (some cut in half), they expect accident related litigation to ramp up, especially when a party is badly hurt and or needing long term care.
The good news for me, broker I'd previously used for 30 odd years, found me insurance for a fair bit less money. Gets even better, switching home insurance (same coverage) will cut it's premium almost in half. All in for my truck, Kath's HHR and the house is $3041/yr. Renewal I have here for the house was $1,547 by itself plus over 3k for the car n truck with reduced benefits and only 1 mil in liability.
Couple of thoughts
-Going with a good insurance broker in most cases is going to get you the advice you need, see you placed with a reputable insurance co and with any luck save you a good bunch of change.
-For fucks sake, when the next election comes along, never ever ever forget what the Liberals have done to us yet again. The never ending lies n bullshit about insurance rates being lowered is just that, bullshit. They are the body that mandate we have no choice but to have insurance to drive in Ontario but have allowed this monopoly to keep gouging the absolute shit out of us all the while smiling n saying they have it under control. When you check off your ballot, make sure you let them know, we the people of Ontario are in charge and we are fed up with being bent the hell over.
Have a nice day. :)
