I don't know your situation, but you can do anything as long as both parties agree. What I mean by both parties is mother and father. If mother and father agree, and the 16 year old wants to live with her father for a year, then it is OK. If the parents do not agree, then a court hearing may be necessary to hear both sides and decide what is best for your daughter. Being that your daughter is 16, she will have some say in court as well.
Of course she does!! Canada may not have as many cattle that her neighbor does to the south, but she still has farmers and ranchers within her borders that raise cattle.
