Our purpose at work
As a purpose-built company rooted in co-operative values, we’ve always believed that by protecting Canadian businesses we’re able to better protect the lives, families and communities they impact. We also recognize that our responsibility to our clients, partners, employees and society extends far beyond a policy. We can and should do more, and we hold ourselves to this higher standard. Risk protection is just the start.
Community impact
If strengthening communities is important to you, then we have something powerful in common. Here are just some of the ways we positively impact society.

Startup Canada is the network promoting, inspiring, educating connecting and giving a voice to Canada's entrepreneurs; supporting them to start, operate and scale businesses that build a better Canada for the world today and for future generations.
