OUT OF PROVINCE MOTOR VEHICLE ACCIDENTS – AM I COVERED?
One of the biggest concerns for Ontario motorist travelling outside Ontario is whether their insurance will cover their claims should they become involved in an accident. This is a significant concern. Unlike Ontario which requires motorists to carry a minimum of $200,000.00 of liability coverage, in the USA, most states do not require motorists to carry a minimum amount of liability insurance. The effect is that many motorists in the USA have little or no insurance coverage.

Emotional Problems After Traumatic Brain Injury
Some people may experience emotions very quickly and intensely but with very little lasting effect. For example, they may get angry easily but get over it quickly. Or they may seem to be “on an emotional roller coaster” in which they are happy one moment, sad the next and then angry. This is called emotional lability.
