If you landed in a province (like BC or Ontario) which have a 3 months waiting period for new comers for health card, you can expect to pay 5000 to 10,000 CAD for delivery charges.  Some provinces (such as Alberta) does not have waiting period, so you can be insured on the first day of your arrival in that province.

According to Air Canada website, a woman with a normal pregnancy and no previous history of premature labour may travel up to and including her 36th week on Air Canada and Jazz.  You can check with your travel agent and Air Canada to search the best rates.

Thank for your reply.

Will anyone know and reply, how much time it will take to get medical certificate and Canadian passport for new born baby in Canada?, since I will be going initially only for 3 to 4 weeks time and need to come back to my job.
