Navigating a new normal
As federal and provincial governments announce phased reopening plans for businesses and social gatherings, we want to assure you that we're continuing to take a cautious, thoughtful approach to supporting our customers, brokers, and employees.
Supporting Customers
As the pandemic continues to affect our daily lives, we have updated our relief measures to provide ongoing support for our customers who are facing financial hardship. Since phased re-openings, states of emergency, and customer needs vary from province to province, our approach is being implemented in a regional capacity.
Please read the information below and speak to your broker if you have any questions about how these measures apply to your policy.
For individuals:
- Flexible payment options — including payment deferrals, waived NSF fees, as well as adjustments to payment frequency and methods — will continue to be offered on a case-by-case basis beyond June 30, 2020
- Customers taking their car off the road completely could save up to 75% on their annual premium
- If you are driving less, contact your broker to see if you have the potential for savings based on your reduced usage

Committed to the Community

You can find details about this in our recent news release.

We're continuing to monitor the situation closely to make sure we're being responsive and supportive to our customers and the brokers who service your insurance needs. We'll update this page as new information is available to share.
