Deleted Medium article and trying to get it indexed on my own website

A long time ago I had an article written and cross-posted it to both Medium and my website. Well, this year I decided to delete it off Medium and just keep it on my site to drive traffic there and boost my site’s DR/DA. Why help Medium instead of my own domain.

Well, google refuses to index the article on my site. Do you think I just need to wait for the Medium link to fall off the google index first? I set the canonical url on my site to my site’s version of the post.
