Get proof of your claim history from Germany.  Approach a broker to canvass insurance companies.

Definitely, absence of Canadian driving history is triggering your premium high. Try online quotes first to get an idea of how much you're expecting to expend. Since you converted your German license into Canadian; you may have to deal with a broker.
