About Wawanesa auto insurance
The Manitoba-based Wawanesa Insurance has a long history in the property and casualty business dating back to 1896. That has not made the insurance company complacent at all, since Wawanesa Insurance continues to grow and gain policyholders throughout Canada and the United States.
Like many other insurance companies, Wawanesa Insurance products in Canada are distributed by independent insurance brokers. In Quebec, however, Wawanesa Insurance products are distributed through company agents.
With car insurance on offer since 1928, Wawanesa Insurance has become one of the largest automobile insurers in Canada. The respected insurance rating agency, A. M. Best has consistently awarded Wawanesa Insurance an A+ (Superior) rating based on financial strength and stability.

Highly Recommend
David Irwin was the agent I spoke with who took the time to search out the best insurance provider at the best pricing. He was easy to understand with no 'pushy' sales tactics! Highly recommend!👌

This seems like a fantastic service
This seems like a fantastic service! It was very easy to generate quotes from several different insurance companies. A representative called me shortly after and I was connected to the insurance company agent almost immediately. They are now running a final report and if all goes well I could be saving $225 per month on an insurance bundle my home and 2 cars!! Yay!! Insurance agent I spoke with was very friendly and helpful as was the rates.ca representative. It took me longer to wait on hold with my current insurance company to find out what my cancellation fee would be then the whole process with rates.ca took. I’m not so naive as to celebrate before I get my final numbers back from the new insurance company, so far the experience has been exceptional. I wish I would have done this a year ago!
