MBAs are worth a dime these days in Canada. As cynical as it may seem, it is the bitter truth. Take it from someone who's gone through the ordeal. Unless you have significant Canadian experience or you get your MBA from the top business schools like UofT, UBC, Ivey or Queens, its not a prospective field of studies these days.

If you still decide to do MBA make sure you get it from top tier B school or at least get yourself into an MBA that offers work terms as part of the program.

And, if you're gonna go into finance make sure you get your CFA certification, that's way more valuable than an MBA.

I totally agree with you..Canada only value canadian school and work. Which will soon make them undesirable working market.

I have an MBA in Finance thou and made my recognition assessment in Canada works.
But if you are at the age for school, better start one in Canada, everything will come much easier.

Canada values Canadian experience for immigration purposes because it shows you have been able to function in the Canadian job market, making you a more desirable immigrant.

Regarding valuing Canadian qualifications, this would only apply to fields that are very localized, for example Law is different all over the world so someone with a Canadian Law degree is obviously a better candidate for certain positions than someone with a Law degree from a European University.
