Bit of follow up.
I was able to get insurance from ICBC in British Columbia on my mothers driving licence (resident of BC). With this proof of insurance I was able to get a temporary operators certificate in Halifax which allowed me to drive from Halifax to Quebec.
None of the private insurance companies in Quebec or Nova Scotia wanted to touch this. Thank god for ICBC which is provincially regulated insurance. They would have insured and provided me with aTOC if I had arrived in BC and wanted to drive across Canada. I have done this before.
Driving a Unimog from NS to QC was quite eventful as I had to stop at each weigh station and a curious cop stopped me afterwards to make sure I did.
