I'm both UK and Canadian and am planning to accept one of the offers for professional masters course in US.
I'm just wondering in terms of visas, which citizenship gives me an easier time to be hired? From what i research, either of them, i would need to get an OPT visa for F-1 students. I'll be honest, i always though canadians had a closer relationship with US immigrations, but was i wrong?
thanks

Look into the TN visa as a Canadian citizen. I don't think it will hold any difference/significance in terms of attending school, but for getting your first jobs out of university that's likely the easier route.

This. Less paperwork for the employers. If you're looking to immigrate though, the TN is not dual intent.
