The Insurance Bureau of Canada has identified Quebec and British Columbia as the two major earthquake zones in Canada. Interestingly, less than 5% of homeowners with insurance in Quebec decide to purchase this coverage whereas in BC, 60% of insured residential homes are covered. Although major damages have yet to be experienced on the East Coast, you should talk to your insurer to see what risks are posed and if there’s a reasonable price you can find to cover yourself in the event of such a natural disaster.
