Tornado damages cost insurers $295M

September’s tornadoes caused a massive $295 million in insurance costs, making it one of the costliest storms in Ontario this year — but not quite the worst.
The damage was roughly a two-to-one split between Eastern Ontario (more than $192 million) and the Gatineau region (more than $102 million) according to the Insurance Bureau of Canada, which represents the industry.
The bureau says it does not receive a breakdown from the company that adds up totals from many different insurers,
