I am sorry to break it to you but your IELTS score is pretty less. While many universities can consider your application with an improved IELTS score, you would have to work really hard for it.
Don&rsquo;t worry, IELTS score is definitely an important factor but definitely not the only deciding parameter for your admission. If you manage to highlight other aspects into your profile where you come across as a good candidate, you can definitely have a shot.
If you are wondering, the other factors that you can consider are:1. GRE/GMAT score
2. Bachelor&rsquo;s GPA
3. Work Experience
4. Extracurricullars
And if you manage to get an improved IELTS score in your second attempt, that would definitely be an add-on. 
If you still feel confused, I suggest you directly get in touch with Study Abroad Experts here. They will analyse your profile and will suggest you the best aspects of your profile that you should highlight. They can also help you in shortlisting the best universities based on your profile.
Hope this helps!

Yes, it is possible to go to Canada with an IELTS band score of overall 6 and 5.5 in three modules, but it may depend on the specific requirements of the institution or program you are applying to, as well as the purpose of your visit.
For study purposes, many Canadian universities and colleges require a higher level of English proficiency, typically a minimum overall band score of 6.5 or higher, with no individual module score below 6.0 or 6.5. However, some institutions may offer conditional admission or English language support programs for students who do not meet the minimum requirements.
For other purposes such as tourism, visiting family or friends, or temporary work, an IELTS band score of 6 overall may be sufficient, depending on the specific requirements of the Canadian immigration authorities.
It's essential to carefully review the English language proficiency requirements of the institution or program you are interested in and consider retaking the IELTS exam to improve your scores if necessary. Additionally, you may explore alternative English language proficiency tests such as the TOEFL or CELPIP, which are also accepted by many Canadian institutions.
