Canada PwC MC vs Deloitte S&O

Hi long time lurker here. So I understand in US Deloitte S&O is far ahead of other big4, but how about in Canada? If Deloitte S&O is still better, how much better than for example, PwC MC? I know in US it's hard to get into S& from pwc MC, but how about in Canada where S& doesn't even recruit new graduates?

I am very interested in strategy consulting and don't plan to leave it in the near future, so I am less concerned about exit op to industries or PE whatever, more about the qualities of the projects themselves. Basically the reason I am posting here is I networked with a senior partner and a director in pwc , they both liked me and said would support me through the process, I liked them too along with people in pwc in general; while for Deloitte I don't dislike their people I just feel they are a bit colder. So I am wondering if Deloitte is more prestigious enough for me to choose over pwc whose people I like a bit better. Thank you everyone!
