Do I need travel trailer coverage?
Third-party liability automatically extends from the towing vehicle* - while the trailer is being towed.
Once the trailer is no longer being towed, a personal liability extension is required to cover any damage the trailer may inadvertently cause to others or their property.

*Not applicable in Quebec.

Why is it cheaper in some provinces to insure female drivers under age 25 than male drivers under 25?
We know young men don't like to hear this, but statistics show that young male drivers have more accidents on average - and they also tend to be more serious accidents.
Every insurer sets premiums based on how likely you are to be in an accident. Statistics are the only way we have to come close to a good prediction.
Yes, in some parts of Canada it is more expensive for young male drivers to get insurance. The good news is keeping your driving record clean will even it up after the first few years. Keep driving safely and your premiums should even out quicker. Risk-takers make insurance more expensive for everybody.

What does Collision coverage provide me?
This covers the cost of damage to your vehicle in a collision or overturning which you're responsible for. It covers single or multiple vehicle collisions. It also covers you if the responsible party is unknown/unidentified. It doesn't cover mechanical breakdown, wear and tear, etc.
This coverage is optional in most provinces, but if you finance or lease a vehicle, the financial institution may require you have it.
How can I be sure I have enough or the right insurance coverage?
There is no right answer to fit everybody's situation. Talk to an insurance expert, such as a Service Specialist, and they'll help you decide. You should always review your coverage if your circumstances change. For example if you move or change vehicles.
