    No, an MS in Canada is definitely not better than that in US. Pay packages may be similar, but the job opportunities are limited in Canada. Even though Canada requires a lot of foreign skilled labour, unemployment rate is slightly more in Canada. Canadian dollar is 30% less valued than US dollar hence the package is on the downside. Population density is 4 person per square km against 34 in US (its 410 in India). If you like a life of solitude you may go to Canada. On an average, Canadian winter is a bit colder than US winter. Top 3 in Canada is better than top 20-40 in US. There is a lot more to weigh in than pay and opportunities.
