    I have just gone through the whole dang policy pdf and I found this:

    B. repatriation if the Qualified Medical Practitioner appointed
    by ace assistance believes treatment in Ireland
    is preferable, transfer will be arranged by regular
    scheduled transport services, or by air or road
    ambulance services if more urgent treatment and/or
    specialist care is required during the journey

    repatriation must be:
    a) authorised by ace assistance
    b) necessary on medical grounds; and
    to Ireland.

    So yes they do do repatriation :)

    The backpackers will cover you grand, and then you can get the medical ins in Can which will cover you for hospital visits (general ish ones like, rather than emergency ones - which your backpackers would cover) and then employers medical insurance will hopefully cover your meds.

    From what I know

    The backpackers IS your travel insurance! You bring proof of your cover from them so that if the immigration officials ask for it you can produce it and you'll be laughin :)
