May 12, 2011 (Toronto, ON) – When it comes to home and auto insurance, consumers in communities across Canada now have an easy way to get the best of both worlds – a quick insurance quote whenever they want it, combined with the value of using an insurance broker. Plus, there’s a chance to win up to $5,000 and help Canadian charity Free The Children.
Aviva Canada, one of the country’s leading providers of home, auto, leisure and business insurance, today announced that consumers can now get insurance quotes online at avivacanada.com.

“For our broker partners,” he continued, “the feature will help them connect with and assist even more consumers.” Visit avivacanada.com to watch Maurice Tullochdiscuss the new capabilities.
