Notice to Members

It is with sincere pleasure that we take this opportunity to announce our new and exciting partnership with Aon Reed Stenhouse Inc. (Aon). One of Aon’s roles is to provide the broadest coverage possible with a stable insurer to provide comprehensive professional liability coverage and superior client service. 

CGA Website: Aon has developed and tailored a website specifically designed to expedite the process of issuing individual insurance certificates. All CGA members will now have the capability to renew, pay and print both their professional liability and office package insurance certificates online.  Members who renew their professional liability insurance online prior to July 20th, 2007 will enjoy a $30 premium reduction for each CGA listed. Members renewing online during this time frame will receive their certificates of insurance by e-mail within the following week.

Please visit the website for CGA members at http://cga.aon.ca. This website will also provide you with:

  • Instructions if you do not wish to apply online
  • Details on how to report a claim
  • Answers to Frequently Asked Questions
  • Aon contact information
  • The CGA Insurance Program Overview.

New Lower Rates: As part of Aon’s commitment to ensuring the CGA Insurance Program maintains the highest limits of coverage at competitive rates, we are pleased to advise that Aon has negotiated a decrease in premium with ENCON Group for the Professional Liability insurance for the 1 August 2007 – 2008 renewal term as follows:
