Step 1
If you live in Canada, are moving to Canada or plan to visit, you want to make sure that you have adequate car auto insurance. In Canada, all drivers are required to have liability insurance. If you're traveling to Canada, your normal auto insurance should have you covered, but check with your agent to be sure. If you are moving to Canada, you will probably want to switch to an insurance company in Canada. If this is the case, check with several insurance companies and have them give you quotes so that you can find the best rate.

If you are trying to get the best quote on Canada auto insurance, you'll want to take advantage of every discount possible. Before getting quotes, get all of your information together regarding your driving record, the type of vehicle or vehicles you wish to insure, as well as any information about other members in your family that will be covered under the insurance. Other discounts to ask about are good student discounts for young drivers, low mileage driving discounts, or discounts for having taken defensive driving courses.

Step 4
When gathering Canada auto insurance quotes, some things might make it difficult for you to get insurance. These include any lapses in your insurance coverage, or suspension of your driver's license. Cars older than 15 years are also often harder to insure. If any of these circumstances apply to you, you'll just need to look a little harder to get a good quote.

Once you've gotten several good Canada auto insurance quotes, it is best to call the insurance company directly and get all the details. Although many people find it helpful to use Web sites to find a good quote, they usually prefer dealing with the company directly when they are actually ready to purchase the insurance.
