🔋 Safe Charging Is a Superpower

Fire Prevention Week runs October 4 to 10, and this year's focus is lithium-ion batteries. Phones, laptops, power tools, e-bikes and scooters can overheat or catch fire when damaged or charged incorrectly.

Charge smart:

🔌 Use the charger that came with your device

🚲 Charge larger items like e-bikes and scooters outside, away from exits

⚠️ Stop using any battery that's damaged or overheating

🔥 Test your smoke alarms

💡 Did you know? E-bike coverage varies from one home policy to another, and some policies exclude them entirely. It's worth a quick check.

Our brokers help homeowners and renters across BC make sure their policy fits how they live. Reach out today to review yours: 🌐 https://wvins.ca/home-insurance/

☀️ Picture This: Two Nights in a US Hospital. BC Covers $150.

It's a surprise to a lot of snowbirds. BC's Medical Services Plan pays a maximum of $75 a day for emergency hospital care outside Canada, and nothing toward prescriptions or ambulance services outside BC. Everything beyond that comes out of your pocket.

A travel insurance plan can cover emergency medical care, help arrange transport home, and protect your trip if plans fall through or your luggage doesn't make it.

Heading away for a few months, or managing a pre-existing condition? Those details matter, so talk to a broker before you book.

⛵ Boating Season Is Over. Your Coverage Shouldn't Be.

Before you tuck the boat away, remember that risks like fire, theft and weather damage don't take the winter off.

What to know:

✅ An annual boat policy covers your watercraft in storage, in transit and throughout the off-season

✅ Home insurance often covers only $2,000 to $3,000 for watercraft, with restricted liability

✅ Agreed Value vs. Actual Cash Value affects what you're paid after a total loss

Wherever you boat in BC, our team can review your coverage before winter. Contact us today for a quick policy check: 🌐 https://wvins.ca/boat-insurance/

No matter the length of your trip, travel insurance is a must. A two-day trip can still come with a five-figure medical bill.

Travel insurance is worth considering for weekend getaways, cross-border trips, and travel within Canada. Depending on the policy, coverage may help with emergency medical care, cancellations, interruptions, baggage issues, and unexpected delays.

Before leaving, check:

✓ Your coverage limits
✓ Policy exclusions
✓ Existing medical-condition requirements
✓ The activities planned for your trip

When did you last check your hot water tank? Taking a minute to look around your hot water tank can help prevent unexpected problems before it’s too late.

Possible warning signs include:

💧 Water around the tank or valves
🟠 Rust-coloured water
🔊 Banging or popping sounds
🌡️ Inconsistent water temperature
📅 A tank approaching 10 years old

Most hot water tanks last approximately 10 to 15 years, but problems can appear sooner. Regular checks and professional inspections may help prevent leaks and unexpected water damage.

Your business may have changed since your insurance policy was written.

New equipment, more employees, renovations, added services, or a different location can all affect your coverage needs. Depending on the business, coverage may include property, liability, business interruption, cyber, or professional liability insurance.

A regular review can help identify gaps before a loss occurs.

Cyberattacks are not limited to large corporations. Small and mid-sized businesses can also face ransomware, data breaches, business email compromise, and costly downtime. 🔐

Cyber insurance may help with recovery expenses and certain claims after a covered incident. It works alongside practical safeguards such as multifactor authentication, regular backups, software updates, and employee training.

WVINS can help you review your digital exposure and explore coverage suited to the way your business operates.

✈️ Heading Somewhere This Summer? Your MSP Card Won't Follow You.

Summer trips are booking up — but many British Columbians don't realize their provincial health plan covers little to none of a medical emergency outside the province. One ER visit abroad can run into the thousands. Before you go, line up:

➖ Emergency medical — the coverage MSP won't provide abroad
➖ Trip cancellation & interruption — recover non-refundable costs
➖ Lost, stolen or delayed baggage — including a delay benefit after 8+ hours

💡 Tip: Even travel within Canada can leave you out of pocket — other provinces may not reimburse at BC rates.

Working Ventures Insurance arranges travel coverage for trips anywhere, from anywhere in BC. 📞 1-800-663-4200
