are all your schools international friendly?

Some are a lot more Canadian/international-friendly than others (UCSF accepting 1 Canadian vs. 32 Canadians for UDM). The schools in this list are mainly taken from posts made by other Canadians so I'm assuming they do accept Canadian students. I did do a quick search for most of them and none seem to state US Citizens only, although I have no way of knowing whether they favour Americans over Canadians/Internationals . Once I purchase the ADEA Explorer, I'll be able to double check which schools are indeed Canadian friendly.
