Waterloo and McGill are the best schools in Canada. There are a million schools in the USA and Europe is not a country. Surely someone else will chime in for those locations. Not my field.
Best to study in the country where you are most likely to live and practice eventually. Construction practices and codes vary greatly not to mention environmental conditions as well. Are you Canadian by chance? If so, don't bother with a US degree unless you can get it for free. No degree is worth 100k in debt.

Probably the best idea to crowd source such a major and expensive decision.

There are online resources that rank universities for their architecture degrees worldwide. I don't know how accurate these websites are, but they have a methodology for ranking the schools, which is better than just what people feel about a school's reputation.
Before you commit to a school, you should ask yourself what you will want to do as an architect. Even though architecture straddles the divide between art and science, many architects end up on one side or the other. More artistic architects tend to develop bold designs, while more scientific architects grapple with the technology of architecture to create safer and healthier buildings. Many firms employ both types of architects for different aspects of a project. Many schools tend to concentrate more on one or the other side of architecture. You should choose a school that focuses on what you will want to do in your professional life.

University of Toronto is the best Canadian architecture school. Its 100% pure professional development and training. UoT graduates are the most desirable of any Canadian architecture program

Stick to your local civil engineering school.. You'll get more technical knowledge than most architecture schools will provide you with
