I think I would wait until the school year was getting close to where you would need to register your Daughter. The you could always say, I am thinking about taking D to Canada for the school year and have her spend the summers with H. Assuming this is what you really want. I imagine you have enough family that could put you and D in a place until you got one of your own. Just be prepared for him to agree to it.
I seems odd that he would agree to end an EA one minute and talk about the two of you living in different countries the next. Does he seem very confused to you?
