Press Release Body:
TORONTO,CANADA, Jan 28,2008--Today, kanetix (http://www.kanetix.ca), Canada\'s
insurance marketplace, announced the results of their quarterly car insurance
premium study and the news is going to dishearten car insurance consumers. The study
showed that the rates quoted for car insurance have risen, on average 5.3 per cent.

By comparing the average of the lowest car insurance premiums quoted online for
Ontario shoppers through http://www.kanetix.ca/car-insurance in Q4 2007-October,
November and December-with the average from the same period in 2006, kanetix found
that the average lowest price had increased by 5.3 per cent. This is significantly
higher than the previous quarter, where a 1.5% increase was noted; a first since the
study\'s inception.

\"Whether or not two quarters, 6 months, makes it a trend is up for debate," muses
Gregory Ellis, Co-founder of kanetix.ca. "But it certainly suggests that auto
insurance consumers should watch their renewal notices closely. The silver lining is
that car insurance consumers have options in that they can easily shop around and
get competing quotes to ensure they're getting the best price."

Even if your rates do not go up on your next renewal, by comparing quotes from
competing companies every year, you will always know how your rates stack up to
quotes from competing companies. At http://www.kanetix.ca/car-insurance, kanetix
offers consumers a better and quicker way to shop for car insurance.
