Lilyth Canada and Britain are about as associated as the U.S. and Britain at this point. The only thing in common we have is we have the same head of state (the Queen as a figurehead) and thus are both part of the commonwealth.
Now in terms of what that means for healthcare, no Canadians can't use the NHS (National Health Service of Britain) unless we were resident in Britain for 3 months+. To put it in perspective I have dual Canadian-British citizenship and even I couldn't pursue the NHS option for this reason.
