December 8, 2022, Surrey, BC/Territories of the Coast Salish (Kwantlen, Katzie, Semiahmoo, Tsawwassen first nations) – Westland Insurance announced today that it acquired Gateway Insurance Group and Hutcheson, Reynolds & Caswell Insurance on December 1.

Gateway Insurance Group is in Halifax, Nova Scotia and Hutcheson, Reynolds & Caswell has offices in the Ontario cities of Huntsville, Bracebridge, Port Carling, and Collingwood.

We’re honoured to be able to serve more communities in Ontario and Halifax as we continue our path of national expansion, thanks to the excellent team of insurance professionals at Hutcheson, Reynolds & Caswell and Gateway Insurance Group.”
