One of the most important things you need to do as soon as you arrive in Canada is to apply for a health insurance card.


.






Your health insurance card is mainly for use in the province where you live. If you are visiting another province and have a medical emergency, you can use your card.



In Ontario, British Columbia, New Brunswick and Quebec, there is a threemonth waiting period before you become eligible for medicare coverage. If you are immigrating to any of these provinces, you should get private, short-term health-care insurance for the first three months.


Insurance companies are listed in the Yellow Pages of all Canadian telephone books, under "Insurance".
