I have been reading threads here and on other sites that suggest finding a teaching post in Ontario would be very difficult, much like here in glasgow at the mo! I am just researching at this point to see if moving to Canada is a viable option, even temporarily. I have a job here which I could take a career break from but obv its a risky business. I have family in Ontario which is why I would like to base there, but they are my dads aunt and her family, who I understand cant sponser me as it has to be my immediate family? Again, I could be wrong but it was immediate family that was listed under this option when I looked.

You are correct in stating that teaching jobs are in short supply in most of Canada. I take from your message that you don't presently have a teaching position and are doing some other type of work. Given that you have family here and if you can get round the cost of your insulin, perhaps you should come on a BUNAC visa to see if you like it here and want to make a life here. You could get a job (any job) to give you some walkabout funds while you research the teaching profession here. I believe that nothing good comes easy in this life and you're young enough to take the risk and if it doesn't work out for you.
What part of Glasgow are you from? I lived in Langside for the first 18 years of my loooooong life and 5 years in Mansewood. I know things have changed considerably in the many years I have lived here.
Whatever you decide to do I wish you much good luck.
