Hey Folks!

My case is bit complicated to understand.

I am on work permit in Canada and Can legally work anywhere. I recently moved from Montreal to Ottawa after my graduation in Ottawa because I found a contract job in Ottawa. Since my job is on contract basis, I can't get Ontario's health Insurance. But I already have Quebec health card (RAMQ Card) which is valid for 3 more years, which is valid in Quebec only.

If I stay in gatineau qc and continue to work in Ottawa, will my RAMQ card is valid if something happened to me in Quebec? or should I take private health insurance to be on safer side. Also, please suggest me some cheap private insurance plans (If you know any).

Thanks guys!

Your health card is related to your place of residence, not your place of work.

@Acajack Thanks for the reply, Is it valid if something wrong happens in Ottawa?
