Hi, I'm Jean Dugas, owner/manager of Bluenose Insurance Brokers. I started Bluenose Insurance Brokers in February, 1988 when I felt there was a need for a local insurance brokerage that treated both the clients and their employees as the most important aspect of their business. I believe we have succeeded in that quest. Thousands of local clients count Bluenose as their trusted insurance advisor, and our employees are happy and proud to be part of the Bluenose team.

We invite everyone to become one of our valued clients.

I am proud to be involved in many local and regional issues, Past President of the Insurance Brokers Association of Nova Scotia, advisory board member of the Sydney and area Chamber of Commerce, a member of the Sydney Kiwanis club, and past and present member of several local sport & recreation clubs.

Hi! I'm Tammy. I have been in the customer service industry for over 10 years and in the insurance industry since 2005. I love working in insurance and I feel especially good about my move to Bluenose Insurance Brokers. Working in insurance is very challenging but offers many rewards. With the industry constantly changing you are always learning something new. I enjoy speaking or meeting with clients on a daily basis and like the challenge that comes with trying to provide a product or service to satisfy their individual needs. I have been with Bluenose since 2007. It is an excellent company to work for. I feel very lucky to have such supportive and helpful co-workers. Bluenose Insurance Brokers are a great team who work together to provide quality, efficient and friendly service to all their clients.

Whether it is your first time looking for insurance or you are looking to renew your current insurance - think Bluenose Insurance Brokers!
