Description de l'établissement
Avis le plus récent
" La description de l'accès à l'hôtel devrait donner les directions vers celui-ci depuis la station de métro Amendola Fiera : pas loin mais aucune indication lorsqu'on sort du métro. L'hôtel est bien situé, les chambres avec sdb sont confortables, le personnel d'accueil coopératif , le petit déjeuner très correct, par contre l'insonorisation entre les chambres est insuffisante.

Hello dear WordPresser,
I am on WP3.9 using Iconic One and I am not really satisfied with the expert thumpnail resolution. My blog is http://www.deathmetalmods.de
Do you have any advice? Probably needs some CSS fixing, right?
Hello dear WordPresser,
I am on WP3.9 using Iconic One and I am not really satisfied with the expert thumpnail resolution. My blog is http://www.deathmetalmods.de
Do you have any advice? Probably needs some CSS fixing, right?
Find this line functions.php
add_image_size('excerpt-thumbnail', 200, 140, true);
200 is width
140 is height
After that run http://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/ once.
Hey there and thank you for replying, but that did not change the resolution.
I am sorry, but I guess I forgot to mention that I use Post Thumbnail Editor for cropping the pictures for the Iconic One format (200x140).
I added your code to the functions.php in my child theme and upped the resolution to 800 x 560 (4x) but the picture size is still 200 x 140 in "post thumbnail editor"
The above code will work with our theme that you download from here, for the free version we do not provide support on custom child themes but only the theme you get from here, before asking for support please disable all third party plugins.
Kindly ask plugin support questions in the respective plugin forum.
You are completly right, should have thought about that before hand.
For anyone gettig here via search funktion, I continued my inquiry here:
Me again:
I checked with the Plugin maker and (to be sure) disabled the plugin:
Result still negative. The functions.php is modified according to your tip above and the excerpt thumbnails are bumped to 800x560. I erased the thumbnail several times in several articles, reuploaded the images and used regenerate thumbnails.
Still the experct thumbnail on the main page are blurry and low res. (www.deathmetalmods.de)
By the way: Do you have a tip on how to decrease the space between the main page post excerpts? Of course I could open a seperate thread for that ...
For anyone trying to modify thumbnail size in their Iconic One child theme use the following code in functions.php in child theme:
You must be running Iconic One Version 1.4.2 or later for this to work.
function iconic_one_child_thumbnails() {
add_image_size('excerpt-thumbnail', 120, 120, true);
add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'iconic_one_child_thumbnails', 11 );
After that run http://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/ once.
If want to modify directly use this
Hey there and thanks for getting into it.
I tried modifying the functions.php in my child theme. In the end it didnt help, but here's what happens:
1. I bumped the resolution to 4x (800x560) and it did in deed increase resolution just fine, but:
2. Thumpnail regeneratior gave a error message and wordpress responded with a "couldnt modify header" message
3. So I started over and tried it again. Second time all worked fine but now the excerpt thumbnails only get bigger not sharper.
Any tipps?

If you are a retailer of plumbing proucts, please read below!!!
After building a new home in Louisiana in Sept of 2004 and having over $4500 of MICO plumbing products installed by our plumber, I was comfortable with the "lifelong warranty" associated with these supposedly high end fixtures. Boy was I wrong!!!
After a six month ordeal of dealing with Maureen first then Pete in customer service...followed by their CEO, Michael, I can tell any retailer out there that you will never experience customer service and general follow through as poorly as what you will experience with MICO DESIGNS, Ltd. The lack of committment is pervasive throughout the organization, and it all starts at the top with Michael, the President. Voice mails, emails ....there is no chance they will follow up with you. Do not waste your time and energy.
My issue was simply one of needing a new diverter valve as the original was leaking and created damage in my ceiling on the floor below. Besides being completely unwilling to supply a replacement part free of charge (they charged me $200 for the new part) even though I provided a proof of purchase from the local supply store, they ended up sending a "newly designed valve" which of course does not meet our needs. So now we are "S.O.L."
Interestingly enough, the local supply store, Keller Supply in Metairie LA, no longer carries Mico products for the same reasons I explain above. So once again, retailers- STAY AWAY FROM MICO!

PRINCETON, NJ—The Princeton Marriott at Forrestal has completed a three-month, multi-million dollar renovation project.
The renovation encompassed all guestrooms, junior suites and guestroom corridors. It included room decor where the outside is brought in through the use of natural tones and organic textures, modern bathrooms with granite counters and Marriott's new Thann amenities and 32-in. flat screen TVs. Eight new Junior Suites have a wet bar, living area, work area, king bed, and large bathroom with two sink areas.

Examples include LED reading lights on the headboards, furniture equipped with plenty of outlets for plug-in devices, and mini-refrigerators and coffee makers in every room."
The Princeton Marriott at Forrestal is situated just minutes from Princeton University on 25 scenic, wooded acres near Plainsboro, NJ. The hotel offers amenities such as a health club, swimming pool, jogging trails, bicycle trails with complimentary bikes available for use, indoor tennis and recreational facilities, and 35,000 sq. ft. of meeting space.

Technology has transformed travel. It's that simple. From virtual-reality tours to mobile check-in to storing and personalizing guests' preferences, technology is continuing to influence the way we stay and vacay, so to speak. And it's also continuing to impact the way hotels do business. It comes down to this equation: guests' demands + hotel delivery = happy customers.

Health & Baby
Preemies Directory
A premature infant is one who is born 3 or more weeks early. The earlier the baby is born, the more complciations can arise because not all organs are completely formed. But most preemies can recover and grow normally with attentive and loving care. Premature birth may be due to problems within the uterus or placenta in pregnancy, carrying multiple babies, or other factors. A preemie may need to stay in the NICU, be fed through a tube, kept warm using special beds, and be on oxygen therapy. Other treatments may also be used. Follow the links below to find WebMD's comprehensive coverage about how premature infants are cared for, what complications may arise, what to expect later in life, and more.
Medical Reference
An expert explains how premature babies have the same milestones as babies born on time, if you adjust the typical timeline for their early birth.

Staff to return to county schools Monday
Published: Sunday, May 1, 2011 at 4:42 p.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, May 1, 2011 at 4:42 p.m.
TUSCALOOSA | Staff and teachers in the Tuscaloosa County School System should report to work Monday, but students do not have to return to school yet.
Power has been restored to all county schools, and Lloyd Wood Middle School is ready to be the site of Holt Elementary for the remainder of the school year, Superintendent Frank Costanzo said Sunday.
On Friday, 10 county schools were without power, but Costanzo said in an interview Saturday transportation routes to schools were still being assessed.
"There's just too much we don't know," he said.

Thank you Paolo! Il tuo link non ha funzionato così ho bisogno del numero della foto. Che il piccino lì seduto allerta tutti i suoi amici e non in movimento. :)
Hi dianne. The one in the next picture does too. I guess they are only cute from a distance. Thank you for your visit and comments.
Gracias por su josastur muy amables comentarios. Saludos de nuevo a usted, Margot
He looks like he's about to sneeze. But I think he's cute anyway.
He does, doesn't he? He is actually warning the other prairie dogs to get below NOW.
I've always thought that the only reason people think of them as 'cute' is because we call them 'dogs' - based on my experience, they should be called 'Prairie Rats' dave hermon
dave - Spoken like a true Colorado rancher! I think they are cute but not too photogenic! :)
Great warning shot!
Funny, I love prairie dogs and think they are so fun to watch. But here we hate pocket golfers! Guess it is different when you have to live with them & the damage they do in your fields!
he's got a look on his face like something has a grip on his nether regions.
Lol maybe that is why he didn't move. :)
--JF** They are fun to watch but they sure create havoc on farms and ranches. We have pocket gophers too.
Ahhah looks so funny :)) Nice to know their language ;) Very good shot!
Greetings, Ritva
They are really cute when they are not creating havoc! Thank you for your comment Ritva.
Lovely shot!Greetings............Patrik.
Thank you Patrik!
Very good shot, cheers Girolamo...
Thank you Girolamo.

In the Crease: Sharks close out the year in Anaheim
Highlights: Early goals from Burns, Couture propel Sharks
The Sharks are 6-2-0 in their last eight games, but just 11-7-3 on the road this season. (AP)
Programming note: Sharks-Ducks coverage gets underway at 4:30 p.m. with Sharks Pregame Live, only on Comcast SportsNet California
Where they stand
Sharks: 25-8-6, 56 points, 2nd Pacific Division, 4th Western Conference
Ducks: 28-8-5, 61 points, 1st Pacific Division, 2nd Western Conference
Goals per game: 3.13 (4th)
Goals-against per game: 2.38 (8th)
Power play: 18.5 percent (13th)
Penalty kill: 82.4 percent (11th)
Goals per game: 3.15 (3rd)
Goals-against per game: 2.42 (10th)
Power play: 14.5 percent (26th)
Penalty kill: 81.4 percent (16th)
Probable lines
Joe Pavelski – Joe Thornton – Brent Burns
Patrick Marleau – Logan Couture – Matt Nieto
Tyler Kennedy – Bracken Kearns – James Sheppard
Freddie Hamilton – Andrew Desjardins – Mike Brown
Marc-Edouard Vlasic – Justin Braun
Matt Irwin – Dan Boyle
Brad Stuart – Jason Demers
Antti Niemi
Alex Stalock
Dustin Penner – Ryan Getzlaf – Corey Perry
Matt Beleskey – Mathieu Perreault – Teemu Selanne
Daniel Winnik – Saku Koivu – Andrew Cogliano
Patrick Maroon – Nick Bonino – Jakob Silfverberg
Francois Beauchemin – Hampus Lindholm
Cam Fowler – Ben Lovejoy
Sami Vatanen – Bryan Allen
Jonas Hiller
Frederik Andersen
The latest
Sharks: Brent Burns had a goal and an assist, and Logan Couture and Bracken Kearns also scored in a 3-1 win over the Ducks at SAP Center on Sunday. Antti Niemi made 30 saves for his 21st win, in what was the Sharks' fourth victory in a row. The Sharks are 6-2-0 in their last eight games, but just 11-7-3 on the road this season.
[RELATED: Instant Replay: Niemi, Sharks snap Ducks' winning streak]
Ducks: Anaheim's 10-game winning streak was snapped with the loss in San Jose on Sunday. Pat Maroon scored the Ducks' only goal, and rookie Frederik Andersen suffered just his second loss this season (9-2-0). The Ducks play six of their next eight games at home, where they have a 14-0-2 mark.
Keep an eye on…
Sharks: Jason Demers. The defenseman has recorded one point in each of his last four games, including his first two goals, since he was scratched against the Kings on Dec. 19. He's been rewarded with power play time, lately, too, and is now playing more than 20 minutes a night on a regular basis after struggling to remain in the lineup for the last two-plus seasons.
Ducks: Saku Koivu. Koivu's line, with Andrew Cogliano and Daniel Winnik, has been a productive group of late combing for 10 points in the last three games. Koivu has led the way with three goals and two assists over that span. In 37 career games against the Sharks, the 39-year-old Finn has 23 points (4g, 19a).
Sharks: Tomas Hertl (right knee), Marty Havlat (lower body), Raffi Torres (right ACL surgery), Tommy Wingels (head into boards) and Adam Burish (back surgery) are out.
Ducks: Sheldon Souray (right wrist), Luca Sbisa (right hand) and Viktor Fasth (muscle inflammation) are out.
Season/All-Time series
This is the first of two visits to Honda Center for the Sharks.
The Sharks, 2-0 against Anaheim this season including a 4-3 shootout win on Nov. 30, host the Ducks on March 20 and visit Anaheim on April 9.
All-time, the Sharks are 59-45-4-7 against the Ducks.
"I owe it to this organization. They gave me an opportunity. I don't know how many organizations out there would give a 32-year-old an opportunity like they gave me last year in the playoffs. You just keep working at it, and setting your goals high. I've dreamt about scoring in the NHL since I was a kid, so it's an amazing feeling." – Bracken Kearns, after his first career NHL goal on Sunday

The government must urgently address the continuing renewal of labor law, as stipulated in the coalition agreement. A study by Tempo-Team shows that the current system costs jobs for three out of every four SMEs and for more than half of large companies. In addition to more flexible regulations on working hours, overtime and night work, the status of workers and servants must also be further harmonized. One year after the equalization too many differences between workers and employees still remain. Three out of four large companies regard the unity statute as a good thing. With SMEs this is the case for one out of five. Both agree that the new equality legislation modernized their HR environments, but that it simultaneously placed a burden on their recruitment of full-time employees.
Did you know that originially, tonic water was a medicinal drink, used to fight malaria? And that the gin and tonic was born in the beginning of the 19th century, when British officers in the Indian Army improved their anti-malaria medicine by mixing it with soda water, sugar and gin?
Belgian press discovered the origins of tonic with renowned bartender Ben Belmans, who explained the fascinating history of the beverage and guided them through a tasting of the 3 Erasmus Bond tonic varieties. The tasting session was followed by a lunch at The Glorious in Antwerp.

A redirection of consumer choices gives farmers and the food chain more breathing space
Fairtrade and value-driven consumption is booming. More than 10% more products carrying the Fairtrade label were sold. This good news has been overshadowed by the deep malaise in which all links of the food chain find themselves today. An audit of the food chain by Fairtrade Belgium and Vredeseilanden shows that all parties keep one another hostage in a deadly price spiral, while passing the buck from one to the other. In response both organizations are now launching a 10-step action plan to break this vicious cycle of price squeezes.

According to a study by Tempo-Team more than one in two workers (58%) find it a pure necessity to shed their workloads and their busy daily lives to recover again.

Marriage of Tienen sour cherries and authentic Brussels brewing know-how gives unique character to Kriek Belle-Vue
16 July, as is the case every year, was the key day for the brewing of the unique Kriek Lambic craft beer in Belle-Vue. Well before dawn tons of prime sour cherries arrived from Tienen. The Belle-Vue master brewer promptly dumped the cherries into the barrels with Lambic. After six months of maturing, the Belle-Vue Kriek was bottled. With its unique sour-fresh taste Kriek Belle-Vue is the number one cherry beer on the Belgian market. These are becoming increasingly popular thanks to the popularity of sour and bitter tastes.
As many as 8 out of 10 Belgians want to have a choice when it comes to receiving digital or paper invoices, but only 6 out of 10 consumers in our country are aware of the fact that they also have a right to such a choice. To make the Belgian population aware of this choice, civil society now joins forces in a campaign to inform consumers, empower them and encourage action. The "My bill, My choice" campaign calls on consumers to make their choices known on www.mijnfactuurmijnkeuze.be.
Nutrition choices of students badly alligned with blocks and exams
Lidl launched its "Eat yourself clever" campaign during the exam and block period. The campaign is designed to introduce studying youths to products that are the healthiest to study well and to excel. To achieve this Lidl cooperates with nutrition expert Prof. Dr. Patrick Mullie. From his interviews with students, commissioned by Lidl, it appears that the vast majority of students need to make other nutritional choices to maximize their performances during blocks and exams.
The 'Fairtrade @ school' campaign of Fairtrade Belgium wants to make children aware of and inform them about the origin of our nutrition and specifically about products from the South. Many children do not seem to know where the food on their plates comes from. This applies in particular to Southern products, including oranges and cocoa beans.
The exceptional quality of Belgian hops, its rich cultivation tradition and its many and new varieties have led to a worldwide increase in interest in our hops. The long tradition of hops in Belgium and the expertise of the growers are world renowned and deserve due recognition. AB InBev also wants to contribute by using Whitbread Golding hops, a typical variety from Poperinge, for brewing its like-named Leffe Royale. By supporting local hops cultivation, AB InBev hopes to breathe new life into the Belgian hops culture. The consistent growth in volumes of Leffe beer, with its global increase of 64% since 2007, promises a bright future for further cooperation with Belgian hops growers.
Every child that is taken up in hospital fights its own battles; whether it is a gravely ill teenager or a child of six that is taken from its familiar surroundings to be taken up for a few days. The Cliniclowns want to be a shot in the arm for all these children by lighting a wish candle for every one of them.
Although more than half of Belgians prefer to build rather than buy and renovate, a study by Reynaers Aluminium finds that 75% in reality still prefer to buy a home and renovate it. More than half of respondents concede that their initial plans are not feasible. The main reasons for this are the lack of financial intervention by Government (65%) and the scarce, expensive building stands (44%). It is notable that considerably fewer of the younger generation who intend to purchase their own homes, consider financial support from Government. The study shows that there is a gap between the building plans of the younger generation with those of the older generation.
The concept of the Paris flagship on Avenue Montaigne has been adapted to this Antwerp store. It upholds the respect for fine craftmanship, rare raw materials, research and innovation the house is known for. The store is divided into two selling areas: the first part displays ready to wear and leather goods, while the second part of the shop includes a shoe area. A sense of timelessness and modernity, strength and ease is achieved.
Inspired by the adaptive nature of the color black, Timberland's city styles feature the color that goes with anything, anywhere. Known by its heritage and craftmanship on brown shoes, this Autumn Timberland launches a predominantly black collection under the name of 'Black Forest'.
In September, press and consumers could get a preview of the collection in the Timberland Knokke store.

With so many great brands on offer on Zalando, it is no wonder customers from all over Europe browse the webstore in search of their perfect festival outfit. At the start of summer (and Summer festivals), we invited five bloggers to the UPR showroom to get festival-ready. They could get their nails painted, their hair styled, have a refreshing cocktail and get dressed in Zalando. When everybody was ready, an original Volkswagen Samba van took them to Couleur Café, a festival in Brussels on one of the most beautiful industrial sites in Europe. There, in the vibrant and energetic atmosphere of the festival, they could put their festival items to the test.
On a sunny morning in June, Belgian lifestyle and fashion journalists gathered at Antwerp's left bank for a relaxing morning with Rituals Cosmetics.

How's that for a great start of the day?
Belgian beauty and lifestyle journalists were invited to spend an interesting day at the UPR showroom and to discover the trends and novelties of our beauty brands for Fall/Winter 2014.

After the tour, everybody was invited at Clinic Concept Store for a Swiss lunch and the opportunity to discover the full collection.
On April, 25th, renowned footwear brand Sam Edelman opened its very first pop up store in Antwerp, in collaboration with Monar. In this store, you will find the most extensive selection of his collection sold in Belgium.

To celebrate the Timberland #inmyelement campaign, we collaborated with actor Stijn Steyaert, dancer/writer Ish Ait Hamou & Eigen Makelij's rapper Nag Toeval.

The result was on display during a closing event at the Antwerp Timberland store, in the presence of press, bloggers and influencers.
Dorothee Schumacher, one of the most important German fashion companies with an international reputation, opened her first store in Antwerp.
She celebrated the grand opening with her close partners, team and members of the press in the new store alongside the fashion museum. An interactive installation transformed the display window into a virtual wardrobe. The fashion crowd were fascinated by the runway looks, favourite accessories and personal quotes from the designer that lit up the façade and transformed the street into an event venue. Champagne flowed from an opulent pyramid – with a luxurious ease exceeded only by the charming energy of the guests. DJane & model Amélie Lens created the soundtrack for the night. Guests like IT-girl and blogger Emma Gelaude and singer Stefanie Callebaut were impressed with the collection.
The shop can be found on the Nationalestraat 24, 2000 Antwerp.
To celebrate the opening of the new Hilfiger Denim store in Ghent, we gathered press, bloggers and influencers for an exclusive in-store event.

This summer, UGG Australia celebrated its 35th anniversary @Siësta Beach Knokke. Think: UGG-cocktails, foot massages, a special kids corner, live acts, lots of sunshine and happy pretty people. Swarovski participated by giving guests the opportunity to costumize their UGG classic boots with their initials in crystals. Highlight of the celebration was an exclusive party at the 'Nacht van't Zoute'.
Home & Body Cosmetics brand Rituals opened its biggest store ever in Antwerp on June 19th. In celebration of their new Laughing Buddha range they had an Oriental theme with Geisha girls, fortune cookies and sushi & sake. Raymond Cloosterman, founder and CEO of Rituals and Eva Elias, Creative Director, were happy to meet the Belgian fans and press on this special occasion.
Agent Provocateur opened its first store in Antwerp (at Schuttershofstraat) on the 23th of May. Sexy models, bubbly champagne and openminded people was all it took to create this sizzling boudoir-evening. Even Mr. M. Lagrange himself could not miss this party to sign copies of his book - totally matching Agent Provocateur's audacity.
Recap video of the Tommy Hilfiger 'Surf Shack' Launch at the Antwerp store on May 14th. Belgian press, bloggers and VIP's enjoyed surf 'n turf fingerfood, music and a live performance by Belgian graphic artist Denis Meyers. Five VW-vans coloured the street and made the perfect setting for a polaroid photoshoot. The perfect summer vibe on a cold afternoon.
For UGG Australia it's not enough to be different. They want consumers to experience UGG really feels like nothing else. That's why UPR Creative developed a 360° marketing campaign based on a brand story that reinforces everything people love about the brand. This story was translated over/into all the touchpoints: media, press, events, digital, retail and product.
To gain fashion credibility and target new, younger customers, We were responsible for building a collaboration with Peter Pilotto. To launch the limited edition collection designed by the Belgian/British fashion brand we developed the advertising and PR campaign.
This campaign energized Kipling by getting enormous press clippings and strong retail exposure.
As reference for private and business flights in the Benelux and France with fast growing activities and HQ on the Antwerp Airport, Flying Group needed to be well prepared for any crisis. UPR organized a hands-on crisis communication audit that resulted in a down to earth crisis communication plan and manual that is manageable for small and medium sized businesses. A specialized crisis communication team of UPR is standby to support its clients in handling any situation that is threatening or could threaten to harm people or property, seriously interrupt business, damage reputation and/or negatively impact their bottom line.
SodaStream is the world's largest manufacturer, distributor and marketer of Home Carbonation Systems. The company launched a controversial television campaign that was banned in the UK and the US. UPR used the ban as leverage to communicate online, social and offline on SodaStreams market strategy, unique sustainable alternative for bottled 'big soda' and the launch of new products. This mix resulted in broad press coverage and the advert going viral on youtube.
To protect what's good is the overall promise of market leading packaging and processing Tetra Pak. UPR was challenged to integrate this baseline in its PR strategy for Tetra Pak and worked out a long term partnership with NGO Green to develop educational projects for children. Tetra Pak and Green launched www.deboomin.be, an educational initiative to fade the boundaries between children, forests and the sustainable use of paper and packaging. The project was endorsed by regional ministers on both sides of the country, national and local governmental institutions and broadly covered by the media.
Staffing company Tempo-Team, part of the Randstad group, needs to position itself as performant challenger on the hyper competitive staffing and HR services market. Therefore Tempo-Team wants to be perceived as thought leader and strong and reliable brand by all B2C, B2B and governmental stakeholders. To put Tempo-Team on the public agenda and to claim share of voice in the labor market debate UPR developed a strategy based on market research, third party endorsement and multimedia communication that aims to improve customer intimacy through mass media and the agency network of Tempo-Team.
Leading accessories and 'mercerie' retailer Veritas wanted to target their core audience to participate at their 120th anniversary and to increase the brand experience through the retail network and a brand new digital platform. UPR targeted mass media with the unique 'story' of Veritas using the anniversary, company results and market strategy as leverage to pitch the PR story that was all about the USP's of Veritas.

This was easy and tasty. We made it for dinner one night, and it was perfect. The only changes I made was that I used 6 slices of bacon and subbed sausage for ground beef. I also left out the chilies because I did not have them on hand. Thanks for the post.

.New tattoos in a new room!.
So for the past year I've been thinking of how I wanted to repaint my room (which was a horrible pale yellow and muddy army green combo that I had inherited) and because I wanted to repaint it I never actually decorated the room in the first place. I finally got around to it with the help of Andy and Tyre and now it looks amazing (and not like some weird sterile hospital room) and then did this fun tattoo on JP whose amazing photography is hanging up around the new room.
new screenprint designs!
These are the newest screen printed shirts: Unisex/Men's Leopard T-shirt in Lapis and Tri-Blend Black and Women's long sleeve leopard shirt in Tri-Blend black. All are available at my Etsy Shop!

Whether you have a truck, van, SUV or car, the law requires you to hold a minimum level of insurance. Each province has different legal requirements, so it's important that you get the right level of coverage for where you live.
Automobile Liability Insurance is mandatory for all vehicle owners. In the event of an accident, it covers any damage you may cause to another person's property as well as any bodily injuries that may result.
In some provinces, Collision or Upset Insurance is included with your provincial insurance plan, but in others, you will have to purchase it separately. Collision or Upset Insurance protects the insured vehicle if it is struck or damaged by another vehicle, rock or roadside object.
Western Financial Group also offers Comprehensive Insurance, which is not automatically included in some provinces. Comprehensive Insurance provides you with protection for damage to the insured vehicle from certain weather related incidents, fire, theft and vandalism.
Operating in the West (MB, SK, AB, BC), your Western Financial Group Broker knows the local laws governing auto insurance as well as any available enhancements to tailor your policy to your needs.
Some areas to discuss with your broker when considering which coverage is best for you are:
Accident forgiveness (not available in all provinces)
Higher deductibles
Increased liability coverage limits
Loss of use coverage
New car, no depreciation waiver
Rental car insurance coverage
Specialized glass coverage (not available in all provinces)
We are committed to providing you with a the best coverage at a competitive price, a fair assessment of your claim and, most importantly, peace of mind.
