We can show you various quote comparisons from a number of travel insurance providers who offer travel medical insurance for visitors to Canada, so you can compare coverage and price all in one step.

 


When comparing policy prices, pay close attention to whether or not there are deductibles. A deductible is a portion of a claim that you pay. Sometimes policies with deductibles save you more than the amount of the deductible itself; this is most likely to occur with policies with small deductibles like $50.
