Square One and Zurich Canada announce expansion of personal auto insurance services to Quebec

A new era of convenience and personalization for drivers

Square One Insurance Services Inc. (Square One), an exclusive agent of The Mutual Fire Insurance Company of British Columbia, is excited to announce the expansion of its innovative personal auto insurance offering to the province of Quebec through a partnership with Zurich Insurance Company Ltd (Canadian Branch) (Zurich Canada). This offering combines Square One's leading-edge digital platform with Zurich Canada's extensive insurance expertise, providing Quebec drivers with a streamlined and modern insurance experience.

"We are pleased to deepen our collaboration with Zurich Canada by introducing our innovative personal auto insurance offering to Quebec," said Daniel Mirkovic, President of Square One. “Our aim is to provide Quebec drivers with a simple, convenient, and personalized insurance experience that meets their unique needs."

“Zurich Canada is delighted to partner with Square One to bring this cutting-edge insurance solution to the Quebec market,” said Saad Mered, CEO of Zurich Canada. “This initiative reflects our ongoing commitment to innovation and excellence. We are confident that our combined expertise will provide Quebec drivers with unparalleled service and peace of mind.”

The Quebec expansion builds on the successful launch of Square One’s personal auto insurance offering in Ontario in late 2023. The positive reception in Ontario has paved the way for bringing this innovative solution to Quebec, ensuring that drivers in the province can also benefit from a more personalized and efficient insurance experience.

Quebec customers can expect:

  • Comprehensive Coverage Options: From civil liability and collision to comprehensive coverage, drivers can customize their policies to suit their individual needs.
  • User-Friendly Digital Platform: Square One's intuitive online platform allows customers to easily obtain quotes, purchase policies, and manage their insurance seamlessly from any device.
  • Exceptional Customer Service and Claims Handling: With a commitment to excellence, both Square One and Zurich Canada ensure that customers receive prompt and professional support whenever they need it.
