Is it worth going outside of Canada to do an MBA with the intention to come back?

For those who want to stay in Toronto/Canada in the long term for finance, is there a notable advantage of going to a higher ranked US/EU school as opposed to going to Ivey or Rotman?

The benefits I see are a lower cost and a network within the area you want to work in.
