Dog bite claims can create unexpected liability and coverage questions — especially when the injured person is the dog-walker. A recent Ontario Court of Appeal decision highlights how “ownership” under the law can extend beyond the pet’s actual owners and why coverage outcomes may not always be straightforward.

This article explores the ruling and what it could mean for homeowners, pet care professionals and liability insurance coverage.

Premium increases usually don’t happen all at once.⁠

They creep up when programs aren’t actively managed — when claims trends aren’t addressed and coverage no longer fits operations.⁠

The Alberta government has introduced the “Care-First” auto insurance model, effective January 1, 2027. 🛡️

The goal? Stabilizing premiums and prioritizing recovery over litigation. With massive increases to medical and death benefits, this is the biggest shift in Alberta insurance in decades.

Key takeaway: If you’re injured, you get help first—no waiting for a court date.

Here we look at how organizations can strengthen fleet resilience through effective insurance planning, emergency response strategies and clear recovery procedures to help minimize losses and keep operations moving when disaster strikes. www.cmbinsurance.ca/blog/developing-cat-plans-for-commercial-fleets

Ontario’s upcoming auto insurance reforms are already raising red flags—particularly around how optional accident benefits will be accessed during the transition period.

Starting June 1, employers of Class 1 drivers in Alberta must provide a Commercial Driver Experience Certificate when a driver leaves the company.

This creates a standardized, legally required record of verified driving experience that follows the driver between employers.

This update impacts compliance, NSC audits, and insurance underwriting—making accurate driver recordkeeping more important than ever.
