I have to elderly parents and a spouse to care for. But my daughter and I are in the process of having our Canadian citizenship by descent recognized. (Great grandfather on one side and great& great- grandfather on the other side quality me for citizenship be. Descent under the new supreme Court decision - and Bill C-3.). So once I no longer have to obligations here, I may well move with my daughter.
