Who We Are

Manitoba Public Insurance is a Crown Corporation that has provided basic, compulsory automobile insurance coverage (called Autopac) to Manitoba motorists since 1971. Our services are available through claim centres and service centres in 13 communities across Manitoba.

Driver and vehicle licensing and insurance services are provided by more than 300 Autopac brokers province-wide. Manitoba Public Insurance operates claim centres and service centres at locations throughout the province, and offers mobile driver testing units to serve remote communities.

Autopac extension, competing for your business on optional coverages, provides supplementary protection to the basic Autopac package. The optional coverages include increased third party liability limits, reduced deductibles, excess value and Auto Loss of Use coverage, to name a few.

Our Special Risk Extension (SRE) department, also operating in the competitive market, provides optional coverage for specialized risks. These include coverage for large commercial trucking fleets and garage policies.

We're a large company, but we're accountable to you every step of the way. This accountability, ensuring we operate within strict guidelines and legislation to protect your interests, requires us to report to the:

• Minister Responsible for Manitoba Public Insurance and Cabinet through the Corporation's Board of Directors.
• Standing Committee of Legislature on Public Utilities
• Crown Corporations Council
• Public Utilities Board

We aim to combine excellent coverage with exceptional service as part of our mandate to ensure all Manitobans have access to automobile insurance at affordable rates. We promote road safety to help keep traffic accidents and insurance costs down. And, if you're in an accident, we provide fast and fair claims handling.

We're proud our insurance rates are consistently among the lowest in Canada, and that most of your premium dollars are invested right here in Manitoba. We're active members and supporters of the community. We live here too and, just like you, we want Manitoba to be a great place to live, work, and raise a family.

We stress customer service, and surveys prove our efforts are getting results. 98% of our customers state they're satisfied with our service staff.

To further ensure we continue providing you with the quality of service you need, we have introduced Customer Service Standards with the following objectives:
