Stay Safe This Long Weekend
The long weekend means more people on the road. We are scurrying up to our cottages in a hurry to escape the city. Or we are planning nice activities for the children, including fireworks. The most important thing to remember is to keep the children safe during these festive times. Here are a couple of…

Rehabilitation At An Added Cost
Insurance legislation introduced in 2010 has now, two years later, come under scrutiny, as expected. The most recent arbitration is about the minor injury guideline or, as we call it in the industry, the MIG. This guideline was introduced to limit medical rehabilitation coverage to $3,500. If you are found to not be in the…

Lending Out Your Car And Insurance Policy
Auto insurance is a tricky thing. It is a contract between you and your insurance company. They are supposed to comply with certain regulations under the contract โ€“ and so are you.

Slow Down And Watch For Children
Spring is upon us โ€“ well, almost. But one thing you can be sure of is children are starting to venture out of their cocoons to play in the streets and playgrounds. As a mother of two, I am always worried about heavy traffic. Children, as we know, are impulsive. When their ball or toy…

Closed or open head injuries can be extremely serious and unlike fractures that may heal in time, the effects of these injuries are long lasting and not easily cured. People endure concussions without realizing it until the effects play out after. What to do? According to Concussions…

The Perils of Travel
With all of the publicized highseas horrors that have stricken the Carnival cruise line recently, I thought it time to discuss your avenues of redress if something goes wrong. What people donโ€™t realize is that when booking a cruise or vacation, the tiny little writing is there for a reason. Most of the fine print…

Letโ€™s Talk Insurance
I am happily surprised that the next provincial election may be centered on insurance. Letโ€™s face it, insurance is not a sexy issue that people tend to want to discuss, but it is something we all need. And I guess I am: I see people suffering every day after they are in an accident. I…

Hazing and โ€œRites Of Passageโ€
Recently some Ryerson graduates were chastised in the press for a hazing stunt. These students will receive no punishment for forcing their classmates to crawl through slush in their underwear. While disgusting, thankfully no one was hurt. This brings up an interesting issue, hazing. This not so innocent ritual of initiating students into a group…
