Quick answer
A 10-year term locks your premium for a decade, then renews at your age then — usually far higher. It suits a need with a known end: a car loan, a line of credit, or covering the years until a mortgage is paid down. It is the least expensive term per dollar of coverage, and the one most people outgrow. If your obligations run longer than ten years, the renewal cost is the risk, not the starting premium. Every figure on this page is a dated Ontario sample and is subject to underwriting.
