Mortgage gets approved without title insurance in BC Canada!

[Aaron Xie]

I am shocked to hear that. I have never seen the finance on a real estate transaction getting approved without title insurance. What if there is a lien or debt on the property! Though the agent, the bank and the lawyer all claimed the they have done the title search and checked with the city, but I think this is just too risky. Should I insist on buying the title insurance? This is in Great vancouver in BC, Canada.
