Check out http://britishexpats.com/forum
Are you a professional of any kind, do you have a degree, do you have experience in a particular skilled job? If so, you may be able to get your own status.
If not, was one or both of your parents born in Canada? If so, you may be a Canadian already.
If not, you might have to wait for your boyfriend to divorce and sponsor you. Because you are a parent, any immigration application would have to include your child. This means that the father, if living, would have to approve your move to Canada. Also, you or your sponsor would have to have money to meet expenses for both of you. Single people coming to Canada need $2500, I belive. You would have to show access to $5000 or more.
It might be very hard for you to move to Canada but good luck in your quest.
