Hi,
The decision on an application for a Canadian study permit will completely be based on one's individual application package. Usually good academic record ( especially marks of last major degree) , proper course selection (preferably showing progression in same field) consistent profile, sufficient proof of funding and a decent IELTS score is seen as a standard benchmark to get the Canadian study permit. There may be more requirements, depending upon the citizenship of one's country.
Most Canadian universities need atleast B grade or minimum
60%-65% (depending on the university) in final 2 years of a 4 years Bachelor's degree for students from India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nigeria etc. and an IELTS score of 6.5 overall (with no bands less than 6)(some top grade universities may require IELTS score of overall 7)/ equivalent score of TOEFL also accepted in most universities for being eligible to apply to Master degree programs.
You can pursue a course based master degree ( generally called M.Eng) OR a thesis based/ applied research degree ( generally called MaSc.) in ECE or closely related fields.
The research based degrees are usually much more competitive, where one generally needs to show some knack for research (like published papers) and selected students usually get partial or full funding. Some universities may also offer funding for their course based Master's in Engineering programs.
Most universities DO NOT require GRE. Overall academic record and academic marks in Bachelor's (in your case marks in final 2 years of B.Tech) is the single biggest criteria for admission to Canadian Engineering Master degrees. Higher the Bachelor degree scores, better it is. 70% marks should get you admitted to mid level universities. CDAC approved Post Graduate Diploma in Advance Computing if nothing, definitely strengthens your profile, indicating deeper knowledge in field of computing.
Here's the list of ALL recognized Canadian educational institutes eligible for OCWP+PGWP, listed according to province:

Go through other university websites, to see if other programs might suit you or not. To get into top grade universities, you are expected to have an excellent academic record.
You have a pretty decent academic record/resume to get into M.S of 1 of the universities you have mentioned. Out of the universities you have mentioned, I would personally say... Univ. of Victoria offers world-class education at affordable fees. Univ. of Manitoba is also a good choice. But at the end, go for a program whose course contents suits your long term goals.
Hope it helps.
Best of Luck.
