Car Insurance Regulation in Alberta

Car insurance premiums are regulated by two government-run organizations in Alberta: the Automobile Insurance Rate Board and the Office of the Superintendent of Insurance.

  • The AIRB’s mandate is to make automobile insurance “accessible, equitable, and sustainable for all Albertans”. Through open consultations with stakeholders and consultants, the AIRB establishes industry benchmarks, including appropriate premiums for cities or regions, on an annual basis. 
  • The AIRB provides a Grid Rate Calculator through their website which allows Albertans to see how their insurance premiums are affected by where they live and their insurance history.
  • Alberta is among 5 other provinces in Canada who operate with private auto insurance systems, including: New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Ontario, and PEI. The private system ensures competitive pricing and more choice for those looking for insurance.

Personal Property Insurance in Alberta

Although automobile and mortgage insurance are government-regulated in Alberta, the amount of coverage you wish to place on your home or personal property should be determined either through a conversation with your broker or through your own research. The coverage you should have on your home insurance is largely dependent on the funds you would need to completely rebuild your home from the ground up. This valuation is not the same as the market value of your home which includes the value of the land which your home sits on.

What Home Insurance Covers in Alberta

Your coverage will depend on your needs. An insurance broker can get to know you and what home insurance makes the most sense for you. Here are some things your home insurance might cover:

  • Damage to your home, including your home structure and detached structures on your property such as a garage or deck
  • Loss of or damage to any personal property which is kept on your property
  • Legal liability which covers you in case someone gets injured on your property
  • Additional living expenses - this covers you in the case that your home becomes unlivable and you need alternate living accommodations
