Hello friends, need some information.

I'm aware that Ontario province requires minimum 3 months stay for applying for free health services.

I would like to know which provinces in Canada offer Health Services free from day 1?

Kindly help! Thank you.
 
Have you looked yourself at any other provinces, some for example have minimum residency requirements where you have to continue to reside for a period of time such as BC . Most people are more concerned about settlement prospects, employment , housing and so on given not much use having health coverage if there are no jobs or affordable housing. Just saying

Be aware that whichever province you select needs to be a province where you are prepared to live for a minimum of 6-8 months after you first arrive. If you arrive in a province, use their health care services and then leave for another province or outside of Canada after a few months, you can expect the first province to go after you for the cost of the services you received since this will be regarded as health care fraud. We've seen this happen to several people on the forum (especially in cases where a pregnancy and child birth was involved). The costs the province makes you repay is always substantially higher than what you would have paid if you had simply paid for the services yourself.
