Montreal 2012

[garbon]

So I'm taking another trip up to Montreal next weekend and I was speaking with a co-worker who asked me if I had my canadian auto insurance card. I looked at him blankly as I'd never heard of such a thing. Called up my insurance company and they said I could receive one by this saturday so I guess I'm good.

Am I just : foolish for not knowing such things existed?

Well, whenever you change your driving habit, it's usually a good thing to check with your insurance company if it affects you.  I thought it was sort of automatic for US&Canadian travellers though, that you'd be covered everywhere in North America, but I guess we learn things everyday

On a side note, have a good trip, have fun   I won't be seeing you this time, maybe on your next trip

I never check with my insurance company. And no one I've checked with who has driven to Canada has ever done this. I wonder if it is one of those technical regulations - oh well I'm covered.

I'm sad I'm not coming this weekend as I saw Montreal is having a last bit of nice weather like NYC is doing!
