Facility Association
In Canada, every licensed driver has access to insurance. If he or she is considered to be a high-risk driver, insurance may cost considerably more than for an average driver, but it is available... at least to the extent of minimum required limits. Where basic insurance is provided by private insurers, an industry-supported service organization, Facility Association (GAA "Risk Sharing Plan" in Quebec), enables all licensed drivers who require car insurance to obtain it.
