Is Insurance Mandatory in Toronto?

What Happens if you don’t have Adequate Insurance in Toronto?

If you drive around without proper insurance or risk owning a home or renting without insurance, you won’t be protected if the worst happens. For example, if you get stopped by the police and you don’t have insurance, you’ll get handed:
