Although a healthy lifestyle is your best defense against serious health risks, critical illnesses such as heart disease, cancer and stroke can strike any of us at any time.

The best way to manage the financial risk of a Critical Illness is an insurance policy designed to pay a lump sum if an insured suffers a critical illness.  The majority of claims for this type of coverage are related to Cancer, Stroke and Heart Attack.

Did you know?

  • One in three Canadians will develop a life- threatening cancer (*1)
  • One in two heart attack victims are under 65 years old (*2)
  • Each year, 50,000 Canadians suffer a stroke. Of all stroke victims, 75% will be left with a disability (*2)
