A recent Ernst & Young report, commissioned by ICBC, found auto insurance rates in B.C. are among the lowest in Canada. The report compared rates in B.C., Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island and Newfoundland, using profiles of drivers of varying ages, vehicles, and commuting distances.

The report comes more than a year after ICBC switched to enhanced care coverage in May 2021, which the insurance corporation said saved drivers an average of $490 on full-coverage personal auto insurance.
