Who told you this? the rental company probably. You gotta understand, they'll do anything to get you to purchase their coverage. Makes sense as they make most of their profit from the coverage the upsell you on.

The CC coverage is only for cars that are under 60-70k MSRP.
If you call the cc insurance division, they'll tell you basically you can rent anything that isn't a supercar/ultra lux
(Bentley, Lambo, etc). Cars like MB's, Volvo's etc are covered
I've rented dozens of cars in the past 10 years in AB and BC. When I did have an issue, (once I got a huge stone chip in the windshield of an Impala back in 2011) the rental company charged my car for the damages, and the CC companies insurance fully re-imbursed me.
