ICBC platforms

Here's what the 2024 BC election parties are promising.

BC NDP

  • Freeze ICBC premiums

    "Freeze your ICBC premiums to lock in your car insurance savings. Changing ICBC to an Enhanced Care model saved drivers an average of 20% on their premiums each year. This model has proven to deliver better care while drastically reducing what is spent on lawyer fees. And we’ll make it work better for everyone: we’ll make sure ICBC’s coverage keeps pace with increasing costs for the services people need as they recover from a car accident." — An Action Plan for You, retrieved 2024-10-07

BC Conservatives

  • Ensure ICBC rate fairness for younger and older drivers
  • Encourage private sector auto insurance
  • Make sure individuals with life-altering injuries from car accidents receive proper representation

    "Make sure individuals with life-altering injuries receive proper representation to fight for what they need to get their lives back on track." — conservativebc.ca, retrieved 2024-10-08

BC Greens

  • Amend the legislation governing ICBC to cover lost earning potential and all reasonable costs relating to accidents

    "The BC Greens would amend the Legislation governing ICBC, to make clear that all reasonable costs relating to an accident should be covered. We would also amend the income replacement sections, to take into account not only current income, but earning potential, so that students and people temporarily out of the workforce are not penalized." — BC Greens 2024 Platform, retrieved 2024-10-09

  • Reorient the culture of ICBC to focus it on care, and require all client notes be proactively shared with the client

    "The BC Greens would reorient the culture of ICBC, to require it to focus on care, rather than minimizing payouts. We would require full transparency from ICBC, including having all client notes be proactively shared with the client so that people can trust the processes and the outcomes." — BC Greens 2024 Platform, retrieved 2024-10-09
