Thank you for the great updates.
Re: Jamaica Cares Insurance Programme to be Launched in Two Weeks
So will I not have to buy travel insurance in Canada if I have this mandatory insurance?
Re: Jamaica Cares Insurance Programme to be Launched in Two Weeks
This coverage will supersede the other coverage, some may overlap. It is up to you...
Check with your local Canadian insurance outlets...
Re: Jamaica Cares Insurance Programme to be Launched in Two Weeks
From my reading of the announcements - which as far as I can see do not include the actual policy - it's entirely possible that the Jamaica Cares policy will cover health issues while in Jamaica but not the usual trip cancellation or delay coverage that regular trip insurance does provide. You'll need to read what the policies cover when they become available in order to make an informed decision.

Even with the policies I've purchased in previous years, not all cover trip cancellation/delays. You always had to pick the coverage you wanted, I would probably supplement the JA insurance to add coverages like trip cancellation.

So November 9th will be the two week mark from the Jamaica Cares Insurance launch announcement. Any body heard anything more about how Jamaica is going to collect it?

The JTB website states:
This page provides information and utilities to non-residents for the purpose of travel to Jamaica over the period November 1, 2020 to November 16, 2020
‐----------------
Don't expect to hear anything more for at least another week or so.... nothing will change before the 16th....
