First of all, your choice of PGDM over Masters is a great move, as you get exhibited to more practical work and a co-op would let you into an internship after your 16 months of course, and I was on same boat but work experience matters later after your PGDM. You may get landed into a job straight after your course in Canada or you may not, so better be secured with genuine work experience, which will definitely help you in your career. My suggestion is to go for work related field for 24months at least and later on go on with your PGDM in Canada, which may land you into a job and a great future. As you have experience, you may be preferred too.
