Canada

According to the Canadian Transportation Safety Board, about 160,000 road accidents

occur in Canada each year.

Each year Canadians lose $1.2 Billion in diminished value of their vehicle from being

involved in a ‘no fault of their own’ type of accident.

Approximately 15% of vehicles on the road are involved in a vehicle damage claim annually. About 10% of those claims result in a total loss. 90% are repaired and have a claim registered against their history and therefore incur 'diminished value' which amounts to billions of dollars nationwide annually.

Studies also have shown that car accidents cost Canada a total of $62.7 bil lion every year.

What protects you if your house burns down? INSURANCE! What

protects you if there is a flood in your city? INSURANCE! And what

protects you if you get into a car accident? INSURANCE!

In return for a paid monthly bill to the Insurance Company of your

choice, they promise to protect your most prized possessions if an

unfortunate incident occurs. But what happens when the insurance

companies fall short of their promises? Fasten your seat belts

everyone because today we are going into the world of Car Insurance.

Page 10: Rasha cheaib media_kit

Good afternoon everyone, my name is Cameron Hayley, and I’m

truly excited to be here today as a part of something that will not only

transform the car insurance industry, but something that will change

the lives of drivers all over Canada.

I want you to picture this with me: Imagine you're driving along in

your brand new car, minding your own business, and out of the blue

someone rear-ends you. You take down their information, call the

police, then your insurance company, and take your car to the nearest

body shop where it is repaired so well you can't tell it was ever hit.

Page 11: Rasha cheaib media_kit

After the repairs are paid for by your car insurance, you think you're

in good shape and haven’t lost a cent. Or have you? I’m here today to

tell you that you can receive cash after your crash. Here’s the

breakdown: Even if a vehicle is repaired properly by the insurance

company, the vehicle still has an inherent decrease in value just

because of a claim being registered against it. When you try to sell

the car, you may find its worth less than others of the same make,

model and year - simply because it's been in an accident.

The difference can add up to thousands of dollars, depending on the

age and initial cost of the vehicle.

Since Canadian insurance companies don't usually cover the

diminished value, you have to fight for compensation.

Most people don't know they are eligible to claim for diminished

value and therefore don't ask for it. Nor do they know how to

calculate their loss.

Page 12: Rasha cheaib media_kit

In plain English, if someone hits you, you have now suffered a loss in

vehicle value through no fault of your own. Their liability coverage

is responsible for covering your loss .That's where

MyCarIsWorthLess.com steps in.

I am proud to introduce to you a new wave of protection. A new era

of insurance. A new platform to rise to. MyCarIsWorthLess.com is

the first completely neutral online tool that is designed by experts in

both the car and insurance business that delivers a fair and reasonable

diminished value calculator after auto accident insurance claim result

instantly.

For only $39, MyCarIsWorthLess.com diminished value calculator,

generates an instant professional opinion report of inherent

diminished value which can help you reclaim your loss according to

the rules of your jurisdiction. So why suffer a loss when it’s that easy

to protect yourself?

Page 13: Rasha cheaib media_kit

Being a Canadian boy, I am thrilled that this is being launched in

Canada, and what better place to kick it off than here in Ottawa, our

nation’s capital.

I can’t wait to travel across the country, showing Canadians this new

and exciting protection program. And I really can’t thank

MyCarIsWorthLess.com enough for including me in this fun and

interesting opportunity.

So as I leave here today, I encourage you to check out

MrCarIsWorthLess.com because you never know when you might

need cash after your crash! Thank you.
