OHIP; confused with waiting time

[jnb845]

"you make your primary place of residence in Ontario; and generally speaking,
you are in Ontario for at least 153 days of the first 183 days immediately following the date you establish residence in Ontario (you cannot be absent for more than 30 days during the first 6 months of residence); and
you are in Ontario for at least 153 days in any 12-month period."

-from the website of OHIP

I got a CoPR a few days ago, and I have been in Canada since 2010, and I have valid Driver's License.
"Establish residence" means LANDING date with CoPR? or just residence address and date from the Driver's License?

and Is it true that I have to wait for 3 months to apply for OHIP and then wait for 3 months again to receive OHIP Card?

You can apply now and show your landing papers. If they are satisfied that you have proven that you are living in Ontario, you will most likely get OHIP coverage 3 months after your landing date.
