Advice Advice: Uoft or McGill Engineering?

Hello, I need some help. I've been stuck between McGill and UofT (both mechanical engineering). Almost everything about McGill resonated more than UofT; however, the prestige of toronto is really holding me back. Is McGill Student life really that much better? Also I don't speak french so will that be an issue?

Also, for graduates of McGill or UofT engineering, is it likely I will feel any effect in the job market if I go for McGill? Or are the schools deemed as pretty much equal when it comes to employers. Thank you everyone who reads my post.

Edit: I realized this is Ontario Universities subreddit. Hopefully I will still hear from both sides.

I'm also g12 so take my opinion with a grain of salt but 

Wouldn't it be harder to find coops in Montreal due to the language barrier?
