Manulife

Travel insurance is important to help protect you, your family or visitors to Canada from costs that can occur due to an unforeseen medical emergency during a trip or an unexpected reason to cancel or interrupt a trip. Without it, travellers may be left to pay significant out of pocket expenses. If you are looking for Single Trip Emergency Medical coverage, CIFFA/Gallagher have recently introduced a new plan that provides up to $5 Million for COVID-19 emergencies while travelling outside of Canada. (Comprehensive Travel Plans)

Manulife

Life moves quickly and your insurance coverage needs to keep up. In this ever-changing world, having some form of insurance coverage is critical. If you currently do not have Health and Dental coverage, you know how quickly medical costs can add up. Expenses not covered by government health plans can multiply quickly, like prescriptions, dental care, vision, specialists and therapists for massage, physiotherapy and acupuncture. Health & Dental Insurance Plans can help fill in those gaps in coverage, and all at an affordable cost. Through the CIFFA/Gallagher benefit programs, you can select the package that offers the benefits best suited for you and the ones you love. (Comprehensive Health and Dental)
