So, not 100% sure how your GPA converts. Assuming it is around a B or B+, I think you would be competitive at say Imperial/Warwick. Most likely competitive at one of the "easier" to get into LSE MSc finance programs (they have a handful and some are more competitive to get into than others.

GMAT is right on the cusp of being very good. It is still fine so don't take offense. Internships and brand names are your strong suite. Lazard is impressive. I would imagine you are bilingual being in Montreal. HEC Montreal is a great school as well.

Look at the LBS MFA program. if your GPA is better than I think and you get your GMAT up a little higher (i'd still say apply anyway right now) look at Cambridge and Oxford. Class rank is important with them so keep that in mind.
