Why must I deal with a Registry Agent?
The Government of Alberta privatized service delivery
in 1994. Since then all government transactions must
be completed with an Authorized Alberta Registry
Agent. Agents are authorized to conduct all services
according to standards set by Alberta Registries,
Government of Alberta, The government no longer serves
the customer / public directly. All data bases and
standards are still maintained and controlled by
the Government of Alberta.

What is auto insurance
for?
Auto insurance guarantees payment of expenses incurred
when your vehicle is involved in accidents or is
subjected to vandalism or theft. It also ensures
you are able to cover the costs of potential damages
or injuries.

Why is it required by law in
Alberta?
Canadians are required by law to have third-party
liability insurance. This covers damages and liability
in case you injure or kill someone or damage someone's
property in a car accident. For instance, if you
injured a pedestrian while running a red light, third
party liability coverage would pay the costs of the
victim's injuries. If you damaged the victim's bicycle,
it would pay for the bike's repair. Mandatory minimum
liability insurance in Alberta requires coverage
for $200,000.

How much liability
insurance should I carry?
You should carry more than the mandatory liability
insurance. You should have enough insurance to cover
your assets. With minimum coverage you may not have
enough money to cover damages awarded by a court
for injuries you caused in an accident.
