Dual intent medical insurance

[yednickteck]

I am a UK citizen, I have applied outland and hoping to travel to Canada under dual intent in a few weeks when my husband moves back to Canada. However, I’m struggling to figure out what to do about medical insurance. Can anyone recommend a good company or share what they did about healthcare while in Canada as a tourist awaiting PR?

Even when you do get PR, you may still need medical insurance as some provinces have 'waiting periods' for new PR's (e.g. You can't get OHIP in Ontario until 3 months after landing to declare PR).
