Travel and Private Health insurance for Expats

Hi,

I have been living in Canada for almost 2 years (2 years in mid-Dec) and am about to renew my 2nd Visa. I need to get travel insurance for when I cross the border in order for the Canadian government to re-issue my Visa.
My problem is, not many travel insurance providers will give insurance for Australian permanent residents beginning their travel journey from outside their country of origin. World nomads is one of the few I can find. HOWEVER, they won't cover Australian citizens who have lived at the same address overseas for more than 2 years. This means, as of Dec, I won't be covered under travel insurance. I am hoping to travel across Canada and to south america in May so it is paramount of public Alberta Health care can't cover this. I do not have permanent residency in Canada either.

Can someone please suggest travel or private health care options for people with my circumstance??
Thank you!!!

Did you find anything? I've only had experience with WorldNomads, which was great, but unfortunately doesn't work for your circumstances. Have you seen this? https://www.visitorsinsurance.ca/#/
