Theft insurance for Canadians travelling abroad

I know this topic was addressed a couple of times previously but they were all for non- Canadians. Does any one know if there are insurance companies out there that would cover laptop, camera etc for theft when Canadians travelling outside of Canada/US?

Go to an insurance broker ... they will know what is available.

You can also usually get a rider on your house insurance (provided you own a house and it is insured)

You can buy international travel insurance - even online.
Just google search.

I just booked with PrimeLink Insurance through the broker I use for my car insurance. They cover up to $1000 per item.

are you sure? I just called them and was told they Primelinkinsurance.ca does not offer insurance for theft. They do however offer baggage insurance which is very different though (ie: your baggage gets lost in transit).

I called them to make sure and they said that theft is covered for max $300/item, not $1000. The $1000 is a total of different items. It is part of the baggage insurance. I have the All Inclusive Plan. Give them a call.

Also, it is only covered if you report it to the police
