Worst Canadian UG to get into IB

Wondering what us monkeys north of the border think are the worst UGs you can attend and still break into Bay/Wall St IBD?

Figured it would be best to kick things off from the east coast. From personal experience, my good friend and I are from the worst UG in Halifax and have made it into Canadian SA classes - from skimming LinkedIn only see Dalhousie students making it to boutiques. Even know a few guys from Acadia making it to ER roles think same about other schools (ie X, UNB, MTA).

would be great to compile a list of the worst schools you can attend and still break in. thx monkeys.
