Not just car insurance. My house insurance went up 25-30%, and the agent said there's not much point in switching because companies "don't want to take on houses older more than 40yo"

While my general Province hasn't been great for various disasters, my city and neighborhood are on the safer end. The house itself doesn't have any of the nasty stuff like asbestos, aluminum wiring, failure-prone plumbing, etc. The furnace was replaced when I moved in, AC and after tank are new within 5 years, and the roof was just done.

It's just a fuck you tax at this point

I suggest finding a new insurance agent. Sounds like yours didn't feel like looking around for you.
