You cannot claim any of these amounts on your return.  However, your daughter may be able to claim some of her eligible moving expenses on her return.  For more info on claiming moving expenses as they pertain to students, please see http://www.cra-arc.gc.ca/tx/ndvdls/tpcs/ncm-tx/rtrn/cmpltng/ddctns/lns206-236/219/stdnt-eng.html
