\n New TD Insurance survey reveals three quarters of Gen Z and Millennial Canadians avoid reviewing their policies, overlooking possible savings wins\u00a0<\/i>\n <\/p>\n

\n TORONTO<\/span>
\n <\/span>, Nov. 20, 2025<\/span><\/span> \/CNW\/ –\u00a0Canadians are hustling harder than ever to stretch their budgets, but when it comes to saving smarter, many are missing out. A new survey from TD Insurance reveals a surprising blind spot: only one-in-four Canadians\u00a0(24 per cent)\u00a0<\/b>have\u00a0reviewed their home and auto insurance policies for potential savings this year,\u00a0though many could be eligible for\u00a0discounts or\u00a0savings.<\/p>\n

The poll found that not only are Canadians\u00a0overlooking opportunities to save on their insurance,\u00a0they often turn to a host of other unpleasant options rather than review their policies. More than half (52 per cent)<\/b> say\u00a0they\u00a0would\u00a0rather\u00a0assemble\u00a0furniture than review\u00a0their home or auto policies, while others\u00a0would\u00a0sooner delete\u00a0their favourite social app or mobile game (57 per cent)<\/b>, call\u00a0their boss “Mom” (45 per cent)<\/b>, do\u00a0their taxes (43 per cent)<\/b> or even sit in traffic (37 per cent)<\/b>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Younger\u00a0Canadians are\u00a0particularly\u00a0likely to avoid reviewing their insurance coverage,\u00a0with three-quarters\u00a0of Gen Z (76 per cent)<\/b>\u00a0and Millennials (74 per cent) <\/b>respondents saying they\u00a0avoid reviewing their home or auto policies, compared to 57 per cent<\/b>\u00a0of Canadians.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Nearly all Gen Z (93 per cent) <\/b>participants said they hesitate to contact\u00a0their insurance provider about savings, far more than\u00a0the\u00a0general population (77 per cent).<\/b> The reason? 34 per cent<\/b> say they simply dislike “adulting.”<\/p>\n

“We know Canadians work hard and are feeling stretched financially. \u00a0That’s why we want to make them aware of the many ways they could save on their insurance,” said Bruno Jauernig<\/span>, Vice President, Executive Journey Product Owner, TD Insurance. “Being more informed about insurance options can help our clients feel more financially resilient, protect what matters most and discover new ways to save money.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n The\u00a0savings struggle is real<\/b>\u00a0<\/p>\n

Despite\u00a0their best efforts, just over half (58 per cent)<\/b>\u00a0of Canadians admit\u00a0they\u00a0are\u00a0tired of worrying about budgeting and feel finding ways to save takes up too much time.\u00a0The survey found many households are resorting to time-consuming measures or sacrificing daily pleasures to save money:<\/p>\n
