Note to all viewers: This is a Canada East thread, so please, I know rates down south is a lot cheaper, so no need to remind me of how pathetic Ontarion drivers are.

I'd say this is unfair and unjustified.
Yesterday I received my insurance renewal (due in one month) and was expecting a drop in my premium because I'm turning older and another safe year of driving has passed. Voila.....$29xx, an almost 10% increase from last year's $27xx. Of course I thought there was a mistake and then proceed to check all the numbers one by one with last year's paper. Policy numbers/categories all remained unchanged, except 3 numbers that each had increased by about 50 bucks. I phoned CAA, asked them about the situation, and got the following response:
"The 3 increased numbers goes for everybody insuring their civic. Our company did not set that number, but some government agency decided to raise civic's premium because there were too many accidents which civics were involved based on last year's statistics."
Lesson Learned: I drive safe. I try my best not to act stupid and damage my car...........BUT TOO BAD I DRIVE A CIVIC COUPE, I JUST GOTTA PAY MORE LIKE THOSE IRRESPONSIBLE CIVIC DRIVERS! SWEET! ACCORDING TO STATS YO!
Just why, why the !@#$ do I have to be responsible for something I did not do?
