Wawanesa Mutual Insurance Co.
 PROFILE
Coal-oil lamp and wooden threshing machine accidents may not be as common as they were when Wawanesa Mutual Insurance was founded on the Canadian plains in 1896, but the property and casualty insurer still has plenty to keep it busy. The company, the largest mutual insurer in Canada, offers commercial and personal lines, including business, farm, homeowner, and automobile policies. It also owns a demutualized life insurer. Wawanesa operates throughout Canada as well as in California and Oregon. The company sells its products through some 1,300 independent agents (except in Quebec where company agents handle the distribution).
