Due to the Canada Post disruption, driver's licenses, insurance renewal reminders, and claims cheques won't be mailed. Instead you'll get a 90-day interim license. Check your policy expiry date & sign up for direct deposit to avoid claims payment delays β‘οΈ bit.ly/48SKf64

Yesterday, a jeep with oversized tires collided with a parked carβa clear example of how modified vehicles can cause accidents. π
You may think they look cool, but illegal mods are contrary to Motor Vehicle Act Regulations. Illegally-modified vehicles can be removed from the road or returned to a legal condition.π¨
Letβs keep Deltaβs roads safe and nuisance-free.
