State Farm is an international insurance carrier that sold its Canadian operations to Desjardins Financial Security Life Assurance Company in 2014, but the operation has maintained its State Farm name. The transition has been seamless to its property, casualty, and life insurance customers, as all documents and policy information still bear the State Farm name.

Desjardins has not only retained the State Farm name, but it also keeps all of the State Farm products and services intact. Customers with State Farm Canada benefit from:

Not perfect, but I'm happy

I think that the premiums are little bit higher with State Farm, but when I had my accident last November, they were with me every step of the way and I couldn't have asked for better service. Tina was very helpful.

I've been with State Farm for 12 years and I don't know what changes they've made internally, but their service really went downhill a couple of months ago.
