This urban density, combined with an old housing stock (a large proportion of the housing dates from before 1960), exposes residents to <strong>specific risks<\/strong> that home insurance must cover: water damage related to aging plumbing, sewer backups, electrical fires, burglaries, falling objects and high civil liability in condominiums. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bac-quebec.qc.ca\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Insurance Bureau of Canada (IBC),<\/a> water damage is now the <strong>leading cause of<\/strong> home insurance claims in Quebec, even ahead of fires. In Montreal, torrential rainfall and pressure on the municipal sewer system contribute to this trend.
