Health

Each province and territory runs its own health insurance plan. A provincial health card gives access to covered services.

Good to know

  • Apply for your health insurance card as soon as you arrive in the province.
  • A waiting period may apply before coverage starts: plan for temporary private insurance.
  • Prescription drugs, dental care and vision care are not always covered by the public plan.
