However that does not mean Saskatchewan drivers impacted by the pandemic should expect to see a break on their monthly premiums to their auto insurance provider. A spokesperson for SGI says while "they are considering options," rate reductions do not appear to be one of them. McMurchy says while they understand the financial impact of the pandemic, SGI will consider all options for passing any savings on to the people of Saskatchewan. "SGI and government will not see a financial windfall or profit whatsoever from this situation." Allstate Canada recently announced that it was introducing a "Stay at Home Payment" program to aid its auto insurance customers.
