I'm not against them make a profit per se, but when it's in an industry that you have to to use by law to drive, well it's just ripe for screwing people, so they charge what they can away with, whereas in the government system they charge based on what it really costs to to cover with no profit motive. Car insurance sucks in Ontario!

Hmmm, I was under the impression it was that way for all of Canada, perhaps it's just western Canada. As someone mentioned before Manitoba, BC, and Sask, have the "one insurance company to rule them all" and I'm pretty sure Alberta does too. I stand...err.. sit corrected.
Tis a shame for you guys then.
