“As a community-based business celebrating our own legacy of 122 years,” says Tim Shauf, President and CEO of The Commonwell Mutual Insurance Group, “we recognized Canada 150 as a perfect moment to step up and specifically help these organizations in their important work to remember, recount, and reenact our shared history for future generations.”
The Commonwell Mutual Insurance Group was formed in 2014 as an amalgamation of Farmers Mutual Insurance Company (Lindsay), Glengarry Mutual Insurance Company, and Lanark Mutual Insurance Company.
Since its founding, The Commonwell Mutual Insurance Group operates on the same historical premise of its three legacy companies: maintaining a focus on local presence and service that builds strong long-term relationships for the benefit of the greater community.
