Community

Smith Petrie Carr & Scott were proud to sponsor EnviroCentre’s “Bicycle Ball”, a recent event held on Friday September 27th at the horticulture building at Lansdowne Park. The “Bicycle Ball” was an event celebrating and supporting a sustainable Ottawa and promoting a low-carbon future. It was a wonderful way to celebrate EnviroCentre’s 20th year and hopefully will be the first of many celebrations promoting sustainability in our city.

Smith Petrie Carr & Scott are proud to present the Dave Smith Youth Treatment Centre with a donation of $10,000.00 from Intact Insurance. The DSYTC was established in 1993 as a result of the relentless efforts of a small group of people, led by Ottawa restauranteur and philanthropist, Dave Smith. The organization helped hundreds of youth and families each year as a Day Treatment program and in 2010, was chosen to alter its mandate to deliver important residential and aftercare treatment services for youth and families across the province. The DSYTC helps young people (13–21) overcome substance abuse and related challenges so that they and their families can achieve greater health, hope and happiness.

Testimonials

Julie

I work for a contractor and deal with many of the brokers at Smith Petrie Carr & Scott. They are always conscientious about their clients and are very knowledgeable with any questions I may have. I highly recommend them to anyone.

Brent

Total professionals through and through. As someone who has previously worked in insurance I can instantly recognize someone who is competent from quote to claim. The value of a good broker is not just their ability to quote from multiple insurers but to take the confusion out of the whole insurance experience.

Mary

Thank you again for your amazing and thoughtful assistance. You have made the loss of this family heirloom much less painful.

Nicholas

Wendy, Wendy, Wendy!!! WOW amazing, there is a good reason to use an insurance broker instead of going through the insurance companies directly and Wendy is a perfect example of why! I’ve always been placed first and foremost as a client at SPCS and Wendy has really shown that!

Fantastic work!!! What great customer service A+

Liz

I have recently renewed my term life insurance and purchased travel insurance through them and I am so impressed with the exceptional service and the policies they were able to find for me. The premium for the travel insurance is literally at least half as much as the other quotes I got for nearly identical coverage. Marjorie is very attentive, courteous and professional, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her. Thank you!!!

Tim
