I live in Florida and motorcycle insurance is not required here.
I understand that Federal interstate commerce regulations allow uninsured motorists from states that don't require insurance to drive in states that do. Having said that, operating a vehicle without liability insurance is nuts.

I should rephrase my question. What type of insurance does the Canadian government require for travelers? Liability, full coverage, etc.? Also, is an insurance card enough proof? Thanks for all the help.
It's not the "Canadian" government, just as it's not the "American" government. As stated above, it's up to each province or state, so you've got over 60 different jurisdictions at work here.
Actually, in Canada, there's one card which covers the whole country. USAA just sent me a "Canada Non-Resident Inter-province Motor Vehicle Liability Insurance Card." It has my name and city, and a description of my bike, along with an effective and expiration date. On the back it says: "This certifies that the party named herein is insured against liability for bodily injury and property damage by reason of the operation of the motor vehicle described herein, in an amount not less that the statutory minimum requirement of every province of Canada." Says it in French too.
I've been through Canada via car a few times and never had to produce the card. But then, I've never had a violation or an accident.
