Yes, you may travel out of Canada up to 30 days but the number of days you spend out of Canada cannot exceed 49% of the total number of days of coverage you purchased. For example: If you purchase 50 days of coverage, you may travel out of Canada 24 days out of the 50 days because 24 days is 49% (just under half) of 50 days. If you purchase 100 days of coverage, you may travel out of Canada 30 days out of the 100 days because the maximum number of days you may be out of Canada is limited to 30 days.
