What’s New: In Brief (April 14, 2008)

Michael King has been appointed branch manager of Cunningham Lindsey Canada’s Fredericton, NB office.
King brings with him more than 20 years experience, working as both independent and staff adjuster.

Vehicle owners who “go green on the road” will be rewarded with a 20% rebate from SGI on their 2007 insurance and registration fees.
The rebate for hybrid and fuel-efficient vehicles is part of the Saskatchewan Government’s “Go Green” Plan, which is designed to encourage residents to be more environmentally friendly at home, work and on the road, an SGI release notes.
“This green rebate is a great incentive for Saskatchewan people to choose environmentally responsible vehicles and help create a cleaner, healthier environment, which benefits everyone in our province,” Ken Cheveldayoff, minister of crown corporations said in the release. “We hope that this rebate program will encourage more people to purchase green vehicles in the years to come.”
The four-year green rebate program applies to all hybrid vehicles, as well as fuel-efficient vehicles identified by the Government of Canada’s ecoAUTO program, for model years 2006 and newer.
Both privately-owned and commercial-use vehicles are included, the release notes.
Approximately 3,400 customers will receive an average rebate of Cdn$172 this year.
