Non-profit philosophyWe operate on a non-profit philosophy. Our sources of income are policy premiums and investment income, and our expenses consist of claims and administration costs. Any surplus remains in the company and benefits our policyholders by reducing their premiums and ensuring the financial stability of the company. This non-profit philosophy means your insurance dollar is working hard for you.

Towing Companies:
Beginning in January 2017, changes will take place to Ontario’s Consumer Protection Act and will include specific measures related to towing. Some of the changes include:
• Receiving permission from a consumer before providing service. A consumer may choose to have their vehicle towed to their home or any facility of their choice. PLEASE DIRECT THE INSURED TO HAVE IT TOWED TO THEIR HOME OR A REPAIR FACILITY OF THEIR CHOICE.
• Provide in writing information about where the vehicle will be towed, along with the provider’s business name and contact information.
• Consumers will be able to pay for services by credit card or cash.
• An itemized bill will be provided listing the services that were provided, along with the cost for each, before payment is received.
• Tow trucks will be required to list the provider’s name and telephone number on the side of the truck.
• Consumers can obtain access to their towed vehicle, at no cost, to remove personal property between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. on business days.
• Providers must disclose if they are receiving any incentive for recommending towing a vehicle to a specific facility.
