Experience, Trust, and Dedication: Serving Ontario Since 1970
About REM Insurance
R.E. Miner Insurance Agency Limited was formed on July 11, 1970, with Ruth E. Miner and Robert E. Miner as the principal shareholders, purchasing a locally run agency from Frank Buchanan.
In 1981, the Superintendent of Insurance decreed that all insurance agencies representing more than one insurance company must be known as a broker, hence the name change to REM Insurance o/b R.E. Miner Insurance Brokers Limited.
Together, Ruth and Bob worked hard to grow their business into the operation it is today. Their daughter, Jill, joined REM Insurance as a broker in the fall of 1981 after receiving her college diploma in Business Administration from St. Clair College. Robert (better known as Bob) passed away suddenly on August 15, 2009, but you will still find Ruth working in the office daily. As the business grew, so did the staff, with Lisa and Tracey starting in 1993.
REM Insurance was acquired on September 1, 2023, by the mutual insurer group Collectivfide. Formed in 2019, Collectivfide’s shareholders represent mutual insurance companies across Canada. Operations will continue as usual, with clients being our top priority.
REM Insurance staff have strong roots and a deep commitment to our community.
