I understand that Ontario recently ruled to retain OHIP coverage for any emergencies while outside of Canada. Can you please explain why I would need travel insurance as well, if any emergency medical costs are going to be covered by OHIP?

I’m hoping that you can answer a question that many, if not most, snowbirds have. Netflix is working on eliminating the number of accounts that have free riders….
