Frequently asked questions
What is tenant insurance and do I need it in Canada?
Tenant insurance covers your personal belongings against theft, fire, and water damage, plus liability if someone is injured in your unit. Landlords are not responsible for your contents. Canadian tenant insurance typically costs $15–$30 per month — one of the most cost-effective forms of coverage.
What is the difference between term and permanent life insurance?
Term insurance provides coverage for a fixed period (10–30 years) at a stable premium — simpler and less expensive. Permanent insurance (whole or universal life) lasts your lifetime and includes a cash value component, but costs significantly more and is harder to compare.
How is auto insurance calculated in Canada?
Auto insurance premiums depend on your driving record, age, location, vehicle type, annual kilometres, and coverage level. Ontario, Alberta, and Atlantic provinces use private markets; BC, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Quebec have government-run auto insurance components.
What does a deductible mean in insurance?
A deductible is the amount you pay out of pocket before your insurer covers the rest. A $500 deductible on a $3,000 claim means insurance pays $2,500. Higher deductibles lower your monthly premium but increase your cost at claim time — choose based on your emergency fund size.
