If the government did not put a lid on the rates, the rates would have shot up much higher, now we have much lower coverage for same or bit higher premium.
Right. Managed well. I guess that's why we have the highest rates in the country even though we have the lowest levels of accidents and fatalities. Terrific. Lucky us.
I'm not sure you remember how it all went down Carl. Probably not. Yes. The province did go to the insurance companies to reduce rates but only because the NDP pushed them to do that. The insurance companies said fine, but we will also reduce coverage. So rates did lower for about 2 years. Then rates went up again. Now the insurance companies get more money for even less coverage and as an added benefit to them, most people a frightened to even call them for anything except the worst cases in fear that their rates will skyrocket.
Like I said. Terrific. Why people defend being abused is beyond me.
