I think my post #67 answered that. As I said, in British Columbia we can drive a car or a bike with just the minimum required liability insurance coverage of $200,000 - nothing else. Other provinces may have different minimum limits, but in today's world, only a fool would risk going cheap on that.Apparently your government sets your coverage amount, and rates, so certainly they will be higher. Knowing the required levels of coverage would allow a direct comparison.
A friend who works as a fraud investigator for ICBC (our provincially run insurance corporation) says that insurance payouts for millions of dollars are not uncommon in serious accidents today and he recommends carrying 5 million in liability coverage.
