Rather similar schools (http://www.eduniversal-ranking.com/business-school-university-ranking-in-canada.html). The tier above these is where the consulting firms focus.
Consulting and Finance are very broad areas. Take a look at How to use LinkedIn to find the best school www.find-mba.com/board/33571

It's also going to depend a bit on your geographic preference as well, since these schools are in three vastly different parts of the country.
I tend to think that Concordia has the edge, in terms of cohort quality and post-MBA career outcomes, but it's in Montreal, where it's important to have some kind of French language adequacy if you want to network. Montreal is also the larger of the three cities, which means probably more diversity in post-MBA options.
Alberta is in oil country, if you had any desire to work in the energy field it's a good place, but for a job in finance or consulting, I'm not so sure. There are some banks there though.
McMaster is in Hamilton Ontario, which is fueled by manufacturing. Toronto is not far, but not commutable either - that's where a lot of the finance and consulting jobs will be.
In any case, you're going to want to use your time build a network, so that you'll know people before you start your job search.

Thank you Duncan and MBA Hipster
I should have applied for concordia early . Fees is very economical too
I went through linkedin .. it was helpful .. i see most of them working in RBC, Td , scotiabank and other banks .. i See even from people from tier 1 colleges.
May be thse from tier 1 would be working on different profiles,so, what career opportunities i can expect from mcmaster? or what are job profiles exclusive to tier 1 ? if any
and lastly
Can you please suggest between alberta vs mcmaster
Thnks a ton
