Also, check the research done at Marine Additive Manufacturing Centre of Excellence

University of Saskatchewan

grad.usask.ca/programs/mecha…

They offer deans and graduate scholarships to go along. You have to possess excellent grades (greater than 85%), publications, and the support of a supervisor.

And finally,

McMaster University

Materials Science & Engineering
eng.mcmaster.ca/materials/prog…
You can follow their updates @MSE_McMaster

 

Things to note:
1) This list is nearly exhaustive. Feel free to suggest more programs/universities. 

2) You’ll realize that some universities have a full-fledged Materials science and engineering department while others are incorporated within or created alongside a mechanical engineering dept.

3) From the first option in (2), have a look at other engineering departments 

in the faculty such as mechanical engineering (some professors in the department work on materials research), Aerospace engineering (Aerospace materials), Biomedical Engineering (Biomaterials), Engineering physics, and Mining engineering (if you have previous knowledge/experience
in mineral processing). Also, consider some electrical engineering dept. especially if you have previous experience or interests in micro and nanotechnologies, energy storage materials (photovoltaics, batteries, and solar cells), electronic materials, and nuclear materials.

Peep into the departments of chemistry and physics research in the areas of materials chemistry, materials physics, and functional materials.

4) Try to be flexible when searching for professors based on your research area. This implies having more than one area of research 

interest as long as you can demonstrate your enthusiasm and past experience (if available). Also look to emerging areas in the field such as computational materials science (ML, AI, IoT, Industry 4.0 in materials manufacturing), additive manufacturing.
5) As a Mechanical Engineering major, you can consider these schools and research areas too. Think of ways you can ink your CAD, Numerical Modelling(FEA), and computer programming skills to what is done in the field of materials. Look beyond your major and consider related areas that are well funded. These are additional strategies to get funding in graduate school in Canada.
