About caller insurance, I heard about it a couple of years ago, and it may
have even been on this list. My recollection is that it's offered by or
related to CallerLab, the modern western square dance folks in the US. I
also seem to remember that the link to the forms was on the CDSS website.
I'm certain I got the forms and emailed someone then to find out the answers
to some questions, and never got any. Perhaps you folks can answer them.
I'm a Canadian caller. Can I even apply to get this insurance?
Will it cover me if I'm calling dances in Canada?
Will it cover me if I'm calling dances in the US, even though I'm Canadian?
Are there any Canadians on this list that have purchased it?
Has anyone had to actually use it (e.g. make a claim)?
I have insurance for just about everything else car, condo, life, you name
it. I wholeheartedly believe in getting insurance if it's available. But I
couldn't seem to find out if I could actually get it. And then it just
slipped off the radar and I forgot about it. Ultimately, I believe that
Canucks are less litigious than you 'Mericans, so I hadn't gone back to
follow up. But every time someone mentions it, I wonder about it...
Thanks,
Bev
Hi Bev et al
Ben hope you don't mind I modified the subject line for this topic fork.
I'm not in that position, yet (may never be) however had exactly the
same questions. I just deleted a bunch of guess work lines here to avoid
muddying the waters so will also see what response there is before
following it up more (other lists, CDSS directly, ..).
