1. "My Government will cover me." Realty is that your provincial government only covers a basic amount of your total health insurance needs. For example, the government doesn't cover private hospital rooms, physiotherapy, and all or a portion of your prescription drug needs. Also, dental and vision care is not covered by your province, which is offloading more and more services to their citizens - meaning you need insurance.
2. "I have other financial needs." Reality is that every year you might have to pay thousands in unexpected medical and dental expenses if you don't have a health insurance plan. If you suffer a serious injury or illness, you might have to use up your savings to make up for the limited coverage that the government offers. For only dollars a day, you can get a plan from us online.

"I'm in good health - I don't need any insurance!"  Well, nobody likes to think about becoming injured or ill, but if you get have an accident or illness, did you know that all your savings could be depleted? Extended health insurance provides a financial security net in the event of a serious illness or accident.
