NDP leader invited British Columbians to compare ICBC rates to Ontario, Alberta
One supporter on hand called his mom in Alberta and another supporter from Ontario was a part of the Zoom announcement; both said they paid much more in Ontario and Alberta than British Columbians with similar driving records.
“John Rustad would double your car insurance rates to pad the pockets of private insurance and personal injury lawyers. You don’t have to take my word for it–call friends and family in Alberta or Ontario, and they’ll tell you,” said Eby. Under the NDP, car insurance bills have been slashed by $500 for the average driver, rates have been frozen, and drivers have received rebates to help offset cost of living pressures, he noted. “John Rustad is hiding his true plans, but we know what he’ll really do. We’ve seen this movie before – hiking the cost of car insurance, cutting health care, and cancelling projects like new hospitals is what he does,” said Eby.
A recent study commissioned by the Alberta government shows drivers in that province pay far more than in no-fault systems like Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and British Columbia, an NDP release noted.
