Who we are

Sonnet is Canada’s first fully online home and auto insurance company. We set out to change how Canadians feel about insurance and provide an easy, transparent and customized way to buy it. We’re a wholly-owned subsidiary of Definity Financial Corporation. Definity’s family of companies also includes Petline Insurance, Family Insurance Solutions, and Economical Insurance - a leading Canadian property and casualty insurer that issued its first policy in 1871.

We’re also ideas people who imagine bigger and better things, inspiring us to take chances and think innovatively. But it’s our employees who are the reason we’ve come as far as we have, and the reason we’ll go much further still. Our values are clear and simple: we focus on our customers first, we bring our best and we’re stronger together. 

Here's what Amélie says:

“It’s so motivating to be part of a team that isn’t afraid to change things up and apply innovative ideas to improve the insurance-buying experience. We pull out all the stops creatively to make the process more enjoyable for our customers – and of course, to make it faster. Every day brings new opportunities to get better at what we do, and that’s what makes working at Sonnet so exciting!”
