Platinum Contributing Member steve from amherst Posted December 11, 2018 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted December 11, 2018 Thefts rise 6% nationally, and Ford trucks hold the top 8 spots in the annual list Auto theft is up six per cent across the country, according to a report released Tuesday by the Insurance Bureau of Canada (IBC). New Brunswick tops the lists with a 28 per cent increase, followed by Ontario with a 15 per cent increase, Quebec, up seven per cent, and Alberta, up six per cent — the highest per capita increase in Canada. Auto theft on the rise in Toronto area How thieves use electronic devices to steal cars The IBC, a national association that represents Canada's private auto insurers, reported the increases in its annual report looking at Canada's most frequently stolen vehicles. Ford F-Series pickup trucks and high-end SUVs top the list this year. "They're of real value," said John Tod, national director of the IBC's Investigative Services. "They're very attractive vehicles. I know that those types of vehicles are in high demand elsewhere, basically overseas." The IBC report uses data compiled by members across the country from 2016-2017, the most recent information available, but Tod said they've also seen the number of auto thefts continue to increase in the first three quarters of 2018.
