Tell the new company you are shopping around for a better rate and have let your old policy run out due to Winter. If you tell them where you've been I doubt they would cover you. Best leave that info out. Or perhaps have someone at home buy the policy for you by phone?
Remember: US customs should not ask you for proof of insurance upon entry. Only traffic cops do this. So coming in the country should not be an issue. (unless something has changed  )
Good luck.

Hi Mickey D,
Thanks for your response. Our plan now is to try a few more companies in Canada. The trick is to try and find one that is not underwritten by the company that refused to insure us.
After I posted this I spoke to somebody here in Real de Catorce that said the same thing you mention, customs does not ask for proof of insurance. One less thing to worry about. The person I spoke to also said that there were many insurance companies just past the bridge on the US side of Nuevo Laredo border crossing that sell insurance. But will they do it for a Canadian bike?
