Mostly great help but I feel when your contract wasn’t renewed for car insurance contacting your customers by email should have at least should got a phone call to their customers when the email wasn’t acknowledged by customer for whatever reasons… but something as important as having no insurance should have required a phone call by the company and the broker should have an alternative option for it’s customers
I had a great experience with Ashley at Surex. She was able to get me insured the same day and sent over my policy right away. The process was quick, and smooth. I’m very happy with the quality of her work and the service, I’d definitely recommend Ashley and Surex to anyone in Ontario looking for reliable insurance.
I have had the pleasure of dealing with Veronique Abbott, with Surex!!!I have spoke to her on the phone and through email!! She is always a pleasure to speak with, so prompt at getting back to me and answering any questions I have!! I had a few advisor with Surex and Veronique is a 11 out of 10! I would definitely recommend Veronique to anyone!!

Boat Insurance in British Columbia
A popular and fun summertime activity is boating, even though in most provinces you only use your boat for a few months out of the year, it is still important to have it insured all year round.
It's called beautiful British Columbia for a reason! The coastal province has an abundance of waterways and is peppered with lakes and rivers, making boating an exciting pastime for residents. The province has over 25,000 inland lakes, thousand of kilometers of rivers, and a whopping 27,000 kilometers of breathtaking coastline! There are many coastal marine parks and protected areas that give tourists and residents a peek at the wildlife as they cruise by such as whales, seals, otters, bears and moose. BC is also a great place to fish, having some of the best fishing waters in the world. So whether you sail, motorboat, or canoe, there are plenty of beautiful destinations to be explored in BC!
No two boats are alike so make sure you speak with one of our Advisors to get the best advice. We'll provide you up to 10+ quotes from Canada's top boat insurance providers, getting you the coverage you need, for the best price possible.
Boat Insurance in British Columbia
Boat insurance covers you in the event of a loss or damage to your watercraft. It covers most watercraft with motors, including fishing boats, paddle boats, leisure crafts, even yachts (for you high rollers!). For smaller boats, you may find some limited coverage under your homeowner's policy, so it's best to chat with your Surex Advisor about what you're covered for and what you need to add to your policy when you buy a boat.
Boaters in BC are required to have and carry a Pleasure Craft Operator Card (PCOC) to legally operate any powered or motorized boat in Canada. Once you obtain this license, it is good for life! And make sure you carry it with you at all times when aboard your boat.
The amount of boat insurance you will need depends on a number of factors such as the value of the boat, the motor size, the age and how you use it (speed boat vs a pleasure cruiser). For example, if you bought a new high-performance speed boat, you will need more coverage for bodily injury and property damage liability than you would if you had a pleasure cruiser.

Riding a motorcycle is thrilling, but in Ontario, insurance is required. Learn the basics—especially if you need high-risk motorcycle coverage due to your driving history.
Electric bikes are a fun, eco-friendly way to get around Alberta, but riders must follow specific provincial laws—just like with any motor vehicle.
