  live anonymous fetch of the OpenID Connect / OAuth 2.0 discovery documents on
  the Wawanesa Broker Platform hosts (2026-07-25), plus CSIO's published API
  Security Standards certification for Wawanesa
docs: https://login.brokerplatform.wawanesa.com/.well-known/openid-configuration
note: >-
  Wawanesa publishes no OpenAPI, so this profile is not derived from a spec. It
  is harvested from the only authentication metadata Wawanesa exposes on the
  open internet: the identity providers in front of the gated broker channel.
  These documents govern how a human broker signs in to the Broker Platform.
  There is NO documented machine-to-machine credential, client-registration
  path, or token endpoint for a third-party developer to call a Wawanesa
  insurance API — onboarding runs through a Wawanesa Business Development
  representative. The business-level auth model for the broker APIs is defined
  by CSIO's API Security Standards (a standard authentication and authorization
  API model for Canadian carriers and Broker Management System vendors), which
  Wawanesa was certified against on 2024-10-29; the standard itself is
  member-gated at csio.com and is not reproduced here.
