I want your suggestions here; I have 2 options-

1. Complete a 1 year Masters degree from US (already have an admit) by next year end - bringing my CRS to 481

2. Complete a 1 year PGDM from Canada (don't have any admit yet) by next year end - bringing my CRS to 474


Now, as per the latest update by immigration minister McCullum, Canadian students are going to extra points -

... However, he said changes to the way international students are assessed under the program were almost certainly going to happen and the minister said he hoped to move quickly.
"There is some urgency in this matter," he said. "Stage one, which I hope would be soon, would be to give more points to the students, and stage two, further down the road after more study, would be to do other things to improve express entry."

My aim really is to get an ITA after education, will I be at a disadvantage in future (1 year's time) if I choose US Masters over Canada PGDM ?

Need your advice here - which option would you suggest ?
