Financial Services Regulatory Authority of Ontario (FSRA). FSRA licenses life agents (LLQP) and accident & sickness agents; property & casualty brokers are licensed by the Registered Insurance Brokers of Ontario (RIBO). Complaints about insurers can be escalated to the General Insurance OmbudService (home, auto, business) or the OmbudService for Life & Health Insurance.

Why is car insurance so expensive in my city?

Insurers price by postal code using local claim frequency, collision severity, vehicle theft and fraud. Dense urban areas — particularly parts of the Greater Toronto Area — tend to cost more than smaller cities and rural areas.

What is the minimum car insurance required in Canada?

expand_more

Every province requires third-party liability insurance. The legal minimum is $200,000 in most provinces (Quebec’s private civil-liability minimum is $50,000), but most drivers carry $1 million or more because serious claims can easily exceed the minimum.
