Location vs role

Question for you guys: Which do you feel would be a better choice; a corporate banking role in New York (BB) or an investment banking role in Toronto (MM)? (junior level)

There would be much more opportunity in NY for networking, but would it be tougher to break into IB once there if you're not already on that "career track" ?
