Toronto Based Investment Banks

Hi, 

I am an IB analyst at Toronto based boutique, and am looking to move to a bigger bank so hopefully I can get a good exit to PE. If someone can breakdown for me please how strong the US satellites are in Canada, and the opportunities they present if I want to exit to a Canadian based PE fund or something in the US, that would be much appreciated. 

If someone can also help me get an understanding the types off opps available with the Canadian banks, that would be great. How does RBC M&A/PU&I (Toronto) fare when it comes to exiting to the US (bank or PE fund)?

Thank you
