Based on the most helpful WSO content, you're on the right track with your list. Toronto indeed has a vibrant buyside scene. Here's a bit more to add to your list:
For Private Equity, you've mentioned Pensions, Altas, and ONEX. You might also want to consider Birch Hill Equity Partners, a leading mid-market private equity firm.
In Public Equities, besides Polar AM and Waratah, there are other significant players like CI Investments and Fidelity Investments Canada.
In the Credit sector, apart from Pensions, there are firms like TD Asset Management and CIBC Asset Management that have a strong presence.
Remember, this is not an exhaustive list and there are many other firms in Toronto that offer great buyside opportunities. Keep researching and networking to find the best fit for you. Good luck!
Not sure what you mean by "best", but always thought these were good opportunities - Brookfield, Sagard, Clairvest, Vertu, Georgian, Imperial, Peloton, Round13 (haven't followed much but Sanjeev has a track record in tech), Torquest,.

All pensions big or small pay very similarly - I can confirm
There are also several secondaries funds: Whitehorse, Northleaf, Overbay, Morningside, and Felicitas recently opened an office in Toronto and hired an analyst that is a buddy of mine.
The owner of catalyst capital had such allegations. Please look up their alumni and which firms alums of catalyst capital worked at prior to and post catalyst capital. That should give you an idea of the talent at catalyst capital. But this is about third eye capital - there are two alumnus there
Third Eye Capital for distressed / special situations
I didn't give you MS but you're getting it because their track record and disclosure is very questionable.
lol someone at TEC clearly read this and had their feelings hurt. turned down an offer to interview there years ago btw. but enjoy pumping up the NAV and distributing income to investors with newly raised capital.

Sources: Walk me through the Canadian IB sector, Buyside comp in Canada, Here's how they made it to front office up in Canada
Nope that’s pretty spot on
Not all pensions are equal.

Is TorQuest really that good? I actually had a recruiter reach out to me recently saying AS1 comp was 210k all in which is really low imo.
I thought $210k was market for Associate roles?
All pensions big or small pay very similarly - I can confirm
I meant in terms of opportunity beyond pay. I'd def choose a CPP or Teachers over something like an AimCo
Agree with rabbit and some smaller pensions have atrocious pay, so not all are equal in pay either
How's Brookfield's Toronto office regarded?
Heard culture is bad and even the IT guys need to wear suit and tie work. However, top shop to work at for infra/energy transition.
There are also several secondaries funds: Whitehorse, Northleaf, Overbay, Morningside, and Felicitas recently opened an office in Toronto and hired an analyst that is a buddy of mine.

Why did I get MS for this?
Aren't they related to Catalyst Capital? Which had some sketchy allegations?
