If you go to
www.travelinsurance.ca they are one of the companies that you will get quotes from, along with Manulife, Tavelguard and TIC. I know Co-operators backs TIC but I am not sure about Travel Underwriters. One company that I would get quotes from a broker would be RBC (not offered on
www.travelinsurance.ca) as they usually have good rates along with Manulife for the most part. I would give the nod to Manulife and RBC if you want the biggest companies backing your policy. This is a fairly simple form of insurance that you can do most of the homework yourself and then if you really need a broker you can place your order. I know the rates for RBC and Manulife would be the same if you use a broker or not. Good to have sites that will educate consumers as this is an area that many consumers ignore but it can be potentially the highest payout you would ever have with any form of insurance. Most out of country travel policies offer 5 Million as a basic blanket amount.
