Ontario switches auto insurance to optional add-ons starting July 1, 2026, keeping only medical, rehab, and care benefits mandatory.
Starting July 1, 2026, Ontario is switching most auto accident benefits to optional "à la carte" coverage, requiring drivers to actively choose extras like income replacement and housekeeping, though medical, rehabilitation, and attendant care remain mandatory.
While this may lower premiums for some, it increases financial risk, especially for pedestrians, cyclists, and passengers without personal insurance, who may face hardship without coverage and must pursue legal action for compensation.
Insurers must inform customers, and changes to existing policies require written updates.
Experts urge drivers to review options and consult brokers to avoid being underinsured.
