OUR COMPANY
Our Mission
To provide innovative commercial insurance solutions, supported by a team of underwriting experts trusted by our broker and supplier partners alike. We do this by providing unrivalled customer service through empowerment, entrepreneurism, technology, and a workplace culture that rewards energy, contribution and a caring spirit.
Cansure is a leading supplier of property and casualty insurance to commercial and personal exposures across Canada. Our products and services are available exclusively through licensed P&C brokers. Claims are handled by our in-house examiners, and our insurers and reinsurer partners represent leading domestic and global brands.
We are proud to offer a very broad product suite covering industrial segments that include Construction, Realty, Hospitality, Manufacturing, Contractors, Recreation, Professional Services, Trucking, and more. In personal lines, Cansure offers coverage for high value homes, semi- or un-protected homes, bed & breakfast, and many other exposures that may not be covered adequately by standard insurance companies. Coverage is also available for boats, motorcycles (in BC), and off-road vehicles under the Beacon brand.
Our underwriting expertise and facilities to write even the toughest risks, or to solve for that small wrinkle in what might otherwise be a very standard placement, contributes to the trusted brand experience that our partners have come to expect.
Cansure provides a one-stop-shop experience, whether by working with our underwriters in-house, or online via the Portal.
Cansure and Beacon are registered tradenames of Specialty Program Group Canada Inc.
