In canada health insurance is compulsory. I started a new job and they say by law you have to have extended medical coverage and i will pay monthly for it. And they are also offering short term disability and accidental and life insurance. They say i have to have it by law & the company will be paying for it. Is that permissible. Please help. I’d appreciate your input.

In our country, medical & car insurance is mandatory. A lot of Muslim brothers say that we take these policies because we have to obey the law; but at the same time, if a need arises, it’s best not to use any benefit from these policies. Can you pls explain whether it’s best not to use them? Also some points which I can convey to them as well.
