Insurance for shipping used car. Seller in ON. Buyer in BC.

I'm the seller. The buyer is flying to ON to complete the purchase. It's my understanding that the buyer needs to have an insurance company and policy in place in order to do the transfer of ownership in ON. The buyer will register the car and get insurance when the it arrives in BC.

Do the shipping companies offer insurance policies that can be used to complete the transfer of ownership in ON?

(I realize it's best to get an answer directly from the shipping companies, but they're all closed for Canadian Thanksgiving long weekend).

@missjo the buyer needs to call his own insurance company and have it insured before taking it away. As long as he signs the back of it under BUYER and you sign it under SELLER that is good enough for an insurance company to put it on his insurance
