    The True Cost of Alberta's Auto Insurance Overhaul

    Has your car insurance skyrocketed over the past few years? Albertans are already paying among the highest rates in the country, and it's about to get even more expensive. Sources say Danielle Smith's UCP government is about to let auto insurers raise rates well beyond the 3.7% cap it imposed earlier this year. Politicians will promise rates will eventually come down because they're eliminating personal injury lawsuits...but is that the right move?  2:40 | Injury lawyer Mark McCourt tells us why he thinks the Alberta government is about to make a big mistake.  MORE FROM MARK: https://www.mccourtlaw.ca/ 32:30 | Marmot Basin opens this week!
