Default Rental Car insurance when booked with points.

I have a pretty simple question.

I am looking to book a rental car in Ottawa, the prices even with some company discounts are more than I thought they would be.

I am thinking of using some of my Avion points to book the rental car.

I am kind of hesitant, because I always envisioned myself saving the Avion points for doing or getting something awesome, but I never do.

Anyway, with rental cars I always just use my credit card for the insurance stuff. But what I'm wondering is if I book with points, would I need to purchase the extra insurance?

I think you may have to use a credit card to book anyway regardless if you are paying or not so would that cover it?

I know I can always call, but questions like this to the CP masses always seem to turn up some useful tidbit or anecdote.
