Can anyone recommend any online forums that would appropriate for teens where my daughter could connect with other teens that have made the journey to Canada? Something to connect with others in Canada, that can bridge the gap somewhat for a sociable teen looking forward to the move, but would like to connect beforehand, and be able to ask questions important to them. Like here, but for younger people.
Any thoughts?

My teens wouldn’t use a forum. Ditto Facebook (also ‘for old people’ apparently), Telegram, WhatsApp and Instagram would be their methods of connecting with others. They did that before heading to uni to find people in their accommodation blocks and it worked well I think. Have a look at MeetUp too.
Good luck.

Many MANY years ago we did have a kids forum on here, don't know if you remember it? It was a pain in that it needed pre-moderating which would be even more of a nightmare these days, and although teenagers did occasionally post about moving, mainly with school worries, it was very sparsely used..

There's lots of resources once you/they arrive in Canada.
