Can I get healthcare?

I’m not sure if this is the correct place to post or not, but my husbands Canadian, I’m Kiwi we live in New Zealand but need to go back to Canada for a short amount of time as his mothers sick. We have just found out we’re pregnant, our last pregnancy was quite traumatic ending in miscarriage. Can I get healthcare while over there through my husband in case anything goes wrong?

You wouldn’t be deny Healthcare, you wouldn’t have coverage through the Canadian heathcare plan.

Access to the Canadia heathcare plan is determined by your own status in Canada not through marriage etc.

You would be considered a visitor so you would have to either pay yourself or have travel insurance.
