What year did John McDonald move to Canada?

Answer 1

On December 2, 2004, McDonald was traded from Cleveland to the Toronto Blue Jays in exchange for future considerations (Thomas Mastny)

McDonald is one of only a few players to be traded for himself. The Blue Jays traded him to the Tigers in the middle of the 2005 season for future considerations. McDonald was then given back to the Blue Jays following the 2005 season to complete the trade.
