Lower? Not a chance. Cap Premiums on Accident Victims...Likely.

Actually yes, I didnt hear any definitive date like winter or anything, but I do know the government is considering both capping claims payouts as well as regulating premiums. One suggestion was move drivers to the "innocent until proven guilty" mentality, where young drivers get a sane rate, until they do something dumb. Also, premiums would not go up for no-fault claims. I saw it on CFCN news as well as some websites like canada.com and canoe.ca.

This paying more for my insurance than for my car is BS, I hope they step in soon :thumbsdow
