Glad I don't insure in Saskatchewan.

Yikes!!! That's insane!

Just checking but the numbers quoted are
the proposed increase and not the range
of insurance premiums. Strange given
Saskatchewan is a low population/density
province so risk factor should be lower.
Notbas many corners so riding risk
should be lower as well. My experience
from having lived in both manitoba and
Alberta is that government insurance is
no cheaper than private and often more.

Been riding for years. Current ride is a 1997 Harley tourer. Plates are 1475 - per year minus my discount. Proposed rate will put it at 2450 -. 35 years of riding and these are the rates I have to look forward to. Buddy in Alberta rides same bike and pays around 925.00 for same coverage. My have to license in Alberta.

Charlie maybe you can come work for me, I tend to hire people without a drivers liscense not bragging about it.

Lots of new people in Saskatchewan not used to way we drive or the conditions of highways. Creates accidents, creates higher premiums.

Not defending SGI, but my guess as to the increases.
