I am answering the 1st part of the question. I assume you can google out the 2nd part of your question yourself.

I am assuming that you are an Indian. The school you want to go to - depends on what you want to do post-MBA. However, *IF* my guess is right (about being an Indian) then all things being equal the US offers a greater chance due to the larger market than Canada.

However if you are looking at Canada then do consider Richard Ivey, and Queens.

There isn't a significant difference in post-graduation prospects. Canadian and American citizens can work in each others countries thanks to NAFTA. Even if you aren't a citizen, Canada's economy is doing well due to the oil boom in Alberta (so much so that casinos in Vegas now offer special discounts to patrons from that particular province!) That said, I still hold that American schools enjoy better brand recognition. Tuition is definitely lower in Canada, although that oil I mentioned is inflating the currency pretty consistently, so factor that into your plans.
