Hi all,

I'm looking for a list of Canadian providers of medical insurance for
(non-student) tourists/visitors to Canada, to be purchased in Canada.
I only know of one, RBC insurance. Any others?

Hi,
If your visitors come from a European country and have health
insurance, in some countries they can register for international
coverage during vacation.  If this costs something, it will probably
be less that what a new short term policy costs.

Hi myoarin,

No, they're coming from Mexico, and it costs about the same there as
buying it with a Canadian company here. Thanks anyways!
