While travel insurance is not a strict legal entry requirement for all foreign visitors entering Canada, it is universally recommended by government and health authorities. Because Canada's public healthcare system (Medicare) exclusively serves eligible residents, foreign tourists and international visitors must pay 100 percent of all medical, hospital, and emergency room costs out of pocket. Without dedicated travel medical insurance, an unexpected accident, illness, or injury can result in catastrophic financial debt during your stay.
