> McGill the Harvard of Canada

You seem to have an axe to grind. No published ranking I know of ever uses that phrase. The phrase really only appears in newspaper articles, and only because American reporters want to pep up their piece about universities in Canada, which the average American knows close to nothing about.

McGill is a good school. It's silly to be a "Harvard" of anything.
