American here. I’d love to do the same. My company even has a branch in Toronto that maybe I could transfer to, but I’m under a year in and I don’t think they’d allow it currently.
Y’all got rid of the grandfather clause for citizenship, right? My grandmother was born in Newfoundland, wish I could take advantage of that.
Interesting, thanks! Looks like I’m at least a TEER 2, possibly TEER 1, and otherwise fit a lot of the metrics for points due to age, education, language, etc. Gonna discuss with the wife.

Look into whether your profession is listed under their “express entry” program, they fast-track skilled labor.

Your grandmother might not even be Canadian, if she was born before 1949 and left.
She was, and did. Long dead now, so doubt it matters.
You might have a claim to British citizenship. It would be really difficult to prove, though.
British citizenship only passes down one generation to those born outside the UK (same as Canadian).
You’d first have to get your parent in the club, I think. Then, as half, you get a leg-in.
Both her and my father have passed, so probably can’t do much lol
