Drone equipment insurance and liability in Canada.

[bonmot]

Is there similar insurance I can get in Canada as Statefarm in US to cover my equipment and liability?

Yes there lots of offerings, I am presently with Magnes who are brokers for Lloyds, but have also used or had quotes from; Charrette Assurances Aviation Inc, HUB International, Intact Insurance, Avro Insurance Managers, Global Aerospace and Alliance. COPA offers a discounted rate as a COPA Member (you can join for about $60) but in the end the insurance depends very much on what you do, eg. the COPA insurance doesn't not cover events where the general public are involved. I also dropped crash damage since I've found careful flying and DJI's incredible service is more than sufficient. My insurance is just for public liability which is necessary if you do anything with the Government (cal, national etc)

Thanks for the info. Just thinking about what if your drone crashed into a car or person...

That’s why I main public liability which includes third part claims

You have to shop around, it’s still not a well defined business
