Alberta Launches Online Resource to Navigate Upcoming Auto Insurance Reforms

Alberta is gearing up for significant changes to its auto insurance system, leaving many drivers uncertain about the road ahead. To help Albertans navigate the transitions, the provincial government has launched a new website, care-first.alberta.ca. The site offers the government’s explanation of why they are making the reforms, their timelines, and the hoped-for outcome for consumers.

“We’re ensuring Albertans will save money on their auto insurance when the new Care-First system is implemented, and we want to provide them with the information they need on how their benefits are going to be increased and delivered faster,” said Minister of Finance, Nate Horner.

Earlier this month, Alberta announced several changes to the delivery of automobile insurance, including a move to a partial no-fault insurance model while maintaining a privately delivered system, changes to rate caps, and adjustments to compensation for accident victims.

Starting in the new year, the rate cap for good drivers will increase from 3.9 per cent to 7.5 per cent. Over the next three years, additional changes will roll out, with the government projecting potential savings of up to $400 annually for drivers once the reforms are fully implemented.

These changes are part of a broader effort to stabilize insurance premiums and improve the affordability of auto coverage across the province. Currently, Alberta has some of the highest insurance rates in Canada.
