USA is better than Canada as it is a bigger economy with more population. Opportunities are more in USA. Moreover they recognise your foreign credential & experience.

On my own opinion, I will go to Canada instead of USA..
Here are the reasons why:

1. Economy is better than USA, did not experience the effects of the recent recession.
2. Education system is one of the best in the world. (2nd in 2013 according to rankopedia)
3. Higher household worth average compared to the US.
4. Less income disparity.
5. Canada was ranked the eighth most peaceful country in the world. The U.S is ranked 100th.

There are many reasons but at the end of the day, it is you who have to choose and decide what is best for our family.

All the best. :) :) :)
