To my knowledge you can NOT use your Quebec health card in Ontario and other provinces except for your emergency. The rules may change. So call a few doctor's offices in Toronto whether they accept your Quebec card. Possibly they won't. In that case keep the receipts of your medical expenses and claim for reimbursement. Contact the Quebec ministry for proper information.

Once you have made your decision staying in Ontario permanently, you can apply for your Ontario health card, which takes 3 months. In the mean time, you keep your Quebec health card just in case you need it for your illnesses. When you receive your Ontario health card, cancel your Quebec health card.

Hope this helps.
