Hi Amritpal,
Please know that there is no degree by the name of MCA in Canada or abroad to be precise. BCA and MCA are awarded in India only. MS programs from Canadian universities require 4 year Bachelor degree and very very competitive. You can check PG Diploma or Graduate Certificate programs in computer related fields from universities like TRU, VIU etc. Also, you should check SPP colleges. If none of these works, look for similar programs in UK, Australia and NZ.
