Ontario's Most Expensive City For Car Insurance Is Demanding The End Of Unfair Pricing

They want to put an end to postal code pricing.

Brampton car insurance rates are the highest in Ontario and it seems the city has had enough.

In an initiative called "Fair Deal For Brampton," the city has started to collect online signatures to convince the Ontario government to end using postal codes to determine car insurance pricing.

The movement, which now calls on the Ontario government to "standardize rates" across the province, was launched in response to Brampton's car insurance hitting as high as $3,301.

"Brampton residents are currently paying the highest auto insurance rates in Ontario, more than 123% higher than the provincial average. Ending the disparity in auto insurance rates, one of the key elements of cost of living is more crucial now than ever," an excerpt from the petition reads.

Anyone looking to support the call to action can sign the form on the City of Brampton's website, which will be sent to an MPP on your behalf.
