IBC Media Advisory - News Conference - What can we do about auto insurance in Ontario?
TORONTO, July 25, 2012 /CNW/ - Mark your calendars! This Thursday July 26, we will let you know!
Consumers think auto insurance rates are too high. The government thinks auto insurance rates are too high. Businesses think auto insurance rates are too high. We think auto insurance rates are too high.
Since 2010, we've been working with the government and the insurance industry on reforms to the Ontario auto insurance product. We still have much road to travel but we need Ontarians input along the way.
Join us for the launch of our most comprehensive and aggressive consumer awareness campaign and we'll explain what we are doing to help bring rates down.
So beginning on July 26, we demystify the auto insurance industry, one road at a time.
Join us to find out how.
