Actually not entirely true. Here in BC, all manditory vehicle insurance must be purchased through the province, through a seperate "entity" called the ICBC. So the governement gets all the money for everything, pretty much. Only optional coverage can be purchased through a private broker such as state farm... gotta love a monopoly.
