Both are accepted: TCF Canada for French, IELTS General Training for English. One application can present both — and that is often what earns the most points, since a second official language adds up to fifty to your CRS score. If you are hesitating, start with the language you are already most comfortable in. One asset on the TCF side: the Prépa TCF topics come up again at the exam — working through all of them, in full, maximises your chances of facing, on test day, a topic you have already practised.
