Hello, I live in Europe(I am European), while my girlfriend lives in Canada(she is Canadian). I am reading about the best ways to move but I suppose best way is to be told directly. How could I move to Canada with her? Could I get a PR? Do I have to do marriage?(I need a lot of time for marriage as Im definitely not ready for it so I'd prefer if this was the last thing to look at) Would it be possible for me to take a flight to Canada and stay there with her forever? Thank you so much for any suggestions!

As a "girlfriend" she has no ability to sponsor you for immigration purposes. You will need to either marry or become "common-law partners" (the IRCC’s definition applies) for her to sponsor you for permanent residency.
Alternatively, use this tool. https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/come-canada-tool.html

Not legally, under the current circumstances.
 
Well I'll visit her couple of times, it's expensive so I can't keep doing it constantly unfortunately but I really want to be with her. I'll talk about marriage but that won't be soon, thank you for your answer.
