Seems Porsche is doing the hand wavy thing of "It's on you and none of our business" for BC drivers. That or someone tell me something I don't understand about rental car insurance.
Is the Porsche Drive / dealership people unable to offer any suggestions at all?

Typically in a regular car rental situation (say, Budget Rent-a-Car, or any of the other companies), they'd directly offer an "insurance policy" when they themselves are the "underwriter" so to speak. As someone whose summer job was a car rental lot boy, I know for a fact that these "insurance coverages" are a major revenue generator for the car rental company. I'd be really surprised if Porsche Canada or the dealership doesn't offer anything of this sort.
