We’re proud to be the exclusive business insurance partner of the Canadian Federation of Independent Business (CFIB), a non-profit organization devoted to championing small business with a library of helpful resources and a strong voice.
And how can they help you?
Since 1971, CFIB has advocated for Canadian independent business owners, fighting for fairer taxes and working towards laws and regulations that will support the success of more than 109,000 CFIB members. They provide their members with specialized business resources, including advice from dedicated business counsellors in every province, updates on important business news, and tools and templates to help manage a small business.
With a number of partnerships spanning a variety of industries, CFIB is also able to offer exclusive discounts on essential services for small business owners.
We’re happy to offer CFIB members these exclusive perks through our partnership:
Before you even insure with Northbridge Insurance, simply request a quote and you’ll receive complimentary access to our Legal Assist* service for a full year. Legal Assist gives you unlimited telephone access to legal counsel for any legal question you may have about your business operations, from product ideas to contract legalese.
Once you insure your business with us, you’ll receive cyber risk coverage at no additional cost, to help protect your business against cybercrime and other cyber threats. Cyber attackers are increasingly targeting small businesses, so it’s important to safeguard your operations against this modern-day risk. You can also take advantage of all the tools, resources, and support that come with a Northbridge policy, including access to our Risk Services specialists who can assist you with risk management through consultation or training offerings.
CFIB members who partner with Northbridge Insurance will also get twice as much Legal Expense Insurance coverage than we typically provide under our small business policy. This increased limit ensures you’re covered for any unexpected legal defense costs associated with running your business. You’ll also get continued access to telephone legal advice from Legal Assist.
For as little as $25 a month, you can become a CFIB member and enjoy all of the benefits they have to offer.
Dues for a one-year membership are $300 total, plus $30 per additional employee.
For more information, you can visit CFIB’s website or reach them at 1-888-234-2232 from Monday to Friday.
