Travel Insurance Canada

Is travel insurance mandatory in Canada?

It is not mandatory to travel to Canada. However, it is strongly recommended that you take out travel insurance to cover medical and other expenses in the event of an emergency.

Why should you take out travel insurance for Canada?

There are several reasons why it's a good idea to take out travel insurance in Canada:

  1. Medical expenses: In the event of illness or injury, medical expenses can be very high in Canada, especially if you have to be hospitalized. Travel insurance will cover these costs, so you don't have to pay out of pocket.
  2. Repatriation: If you need to be evacuated to receive appropriate medical care, travel insurance can cover the cost of evacuation, which can be very expensive.
  3. Third-party liability: If you cause damage to others or property, travel insurance can cover the cost of third-party liability.
  4. Loss and theft: If your luggage is lost or stolen, or if you lose money or valuables, travel insurance can cover these losses.
  5. Cancellations and delays: If your trip is cancelled or delayed due to unforeseen circumstances, such as illness or natural disaster, travel insurance can cover the associated costs.

Health and health care in Canada

What are the health risks in Canada?

Overall, Canada is a health-safe country, but there are a few risks to consider: the presence of mosquitoes carrying Lyme disease and West Nile fever, sporadic cases of rabies, and extreme weather conditions in some regions.

What type of plumbing system should I use?

Canada's health care system is made up of both government-funded public health care and private health care. Travelers can use both networks, but for emergency care, we recommend going to a public hospital or health center rather than a private clinic, where costs can be higher.

Travelling responsibly in Canada

How can you reduce risks by traveling responsibly?

  1. Plan your trip in advance, with information on places to visit, modes of transport and weather conditions. Plan your itinerary in advance to avoid the unexpected.
  2. Comply with the laws and regulations in force in your country and the various provinces or territories. Pay particular attention to driving rules and speed limits.
  3. Be aware of health risks by finding out about the necessary vaccinations and taking the necessary precautions to avoid illness.
  4. Avoid high-risk areas, such as those with a high crime rate or those affected by natural disasters. Pay attention to local alerts and follow the instructions of the authorities.
  5. Encourage responsible tourism by choosing local businesses, sustainable accommodation and ecotourism activities. Respect the natural environment and don't leave garbage behind.
