Registering with Foreign Affairs

Team captain Richard tipped us to the registration service provided by the Canadian government for all Canadians travelling or living abroad. This service is provided so that we travellers can be contacted and assisted in an emergency in a foreign country, such as a natural disaster or civil unrest, or in the event of a family emergency at home. The website for this is http://www.voyage.gc.ca/.

You can register in advance online, which I did, and then activate your file by phone when you arrive in the country.
