An article in the Downsview Advocate by reporter Tom Rakocevic on September 18, 2017 states that auto insurance rates in Downsview are the highest in Ontario. Brampton also argues that it has the highest rates. Either way, all auto insurance rates in Ontario are far higher than elsewhere in Canada. Auto insurance profits also equate an average of 11-12% Return on Equity after taxes and, contrary to what auto insurers state in their million dollar ad campaigns that they are losing money because fraud is so high, a closer look shows that this is far from the truth.
