Price or service wise. For price, the cost for me at Belair Direct was 30% less when I switched from Allstate. I am going into my second year with Belair and my rate was lowered again by approx 30%. Now I am paying half of what I used to pay at Allstate

I just changed my homeowners and car insurance from Wawanessa to CAA.. I saved 800 a year, blew me away
 
I went with CIBC for my car insurance and saves 1000 a year
 
TD Meloche Monnex. They also have postsecondary or professional association discounts that can make your rate even cheaper.
 
If you are able, combine as much coverage in one place as possible - i.e. a car, motorcycle, boat, house, cottage, etc. You get multiple line discounts whereever you go. Plus let them know if you have an alarm system, if you put winter tires on your vehicles, etc. If you're a safe driver, increase your deductible. These are all decent ways of reducing your annual premiums. Also, don't change companies too often - you do want to have a good relationship with your insurer - that way claims are handled a little more liberally.

Talk to an insurance broker, someone who deals with multiple car insurance companies. Or do your own comparisons, using Timbit's fine advice. It also depends on where you live, your age, and what type of car you drive. And certainly your past history as a driver.
