Coupla thoughts...
BC has no-fault insurance. So even if you're the mostest awesomest driver in the world and would never
cause an accident, if you get in one, your insurance company is paying. And we all know how much they like to do that. So expect them to try to find a reason to not pay...
...speaking of which, one of the major factors in how most insurance companies set your premium is where you live. If that changes and you don't notify them, my guess is that they've loopholed the crap outta your contract with them and they don't have to pay.
Another good reason to get on with it: last I lived there, BC drivers are required to insure through ICBC. Cop pulls you over, asks for license and proof of insurance, you hand over BC license and your State Farm papers, and he hands you back a mucho expensive ticket for driving without insurance.
