In my experience, my wife needed a certified copy of her passport, and we went to the Canadian consulate in our area where they took 10 minutes to give her 3 certified copies right then and there.

OHIP while not a tax resident of Canada

I am on a TN visa with my spouse (on a TD) living in Washington State, and we are no longer tax residents of Ontario (as determined by the CRA).
