Private health insurance for the first 3 months in Ontario

[darthbear]

Hello,

I moved to Toronto from the US (NYC) 3 weeks ago. I stayed 2 weeks at a hotel and then settled in an apartment last week.
This morning, I tried to apply for a health insurance card but I've been told that I can only get it after 3 months. Therefore I would need
to look for a private insurance that can cover me for the first 3 months. I've seen that some private insurances require you to apply at most 5 days after your arrival so now I'm not sure what private insurance I can get since I arrived 3 weeks ago. Does anybody know of a private insurance in
Toronto that can cover me for 3 months?

Thanks in advance.

Darth.
