Columbia University is an Ivy League school and thus will be known better overall than UofT in most places.

Internationally (as a rule of thumb), any top ranking US university will immediately outrank a top ranking Canadian university in terms of recognition and reputation.

Stanford isn't technically Ivy. =S But I know what you mean, especially as of late, Stanford is really getting ahead of many of the original Ivys.

You will also be paying a bunch more cash for Columbia too.
Success is not the key to happiness, happiness is the key to success. If you love what you do in life, you will be a success!!

Columbia university has almost ten times the nobel prize winners of U of T. So in terms of sciences (scientists), it's like comparing St. George to George Brown.
