"This contest gives Canadians the opportunity to explore the world, travel somewhere they've never been before, visit friends and family, or return to a destination that they loved," says Chris Krug, Account Manager, Travel Insurance at KANETIX.ca. "Completing a travel insurance quote is something all Canadians should be doing before they depart on a trip anyway, and this contest rewards them for taking the time to make sure they're protected."
