keep shopping around try AVIVA they were cheaper than bel air for me but not as cheap as dejardins

location is a HUGE factory in price.

For example. If I move 5 minutes North from where I currently live, my insurance would significantly decrease.

L4C to L4E is a huge difference and both postal codes are in the same town, Richmond Hill.

Either way, I was just curious cause there's a lot of things i'd like to do and that little bit could help down the road.

Yes, sales reps make commission, with most companies at least. I don't know how all companies work. However, they don't make up the price you pay, it is system generated.

haha good luck, I can get even more company names if you want. It will be a good couple days of calling. I am sure you will find a decent price with all the coverage's you want.
