That's cause there aren't any. Unlike Mexico, your insurance company covers
you in Canada. If your insurance covers you for rental cars (most do), then
that insurance still works in Canada.

Don't you live in Oregon, Sue? Shouldn't you go to Canada a bit more often?

This only applies to rental cars, right? What about those of us who will
be driving our own vehicles??? I haven't been to Canada since 1991
when we went over to the Canadian side of Niagara Falls for the day. I
don't remember any special requirements then.
