I'm in the midst of aiming for: University of Melbourne / University of B.Columbia / & universities in UK.
What are my chances of entering to the above with MUFY?
I'm planning to take Law / Business / Social Science / Psychology. (Order of preferences)
Perhaps you haven't yet commenced the necessary checks, because the University of British Columbia only offers a JD, an LLM, and a PhD in Law. It's good to consider graduate destinations early, of course, but this is not relevant to your real (immediate) intentions.

2. Law is a competitive course and hence you need a competive qualification. Sad to say MUFY is not really on par with other widely recognised pre-U (say A-levels). You could probably get into Melbourne, but you will have a tough time getting into UK law school. Dunno about Canada though.
Law in the UK is indeed quite competitive, but this really only matters if you're aiming for top dogs like Oxbridge, LSE, UCL, King's, and Warwick (for the standard A Level or IB student, the only real challenge is Oxbridge). I cannot objectively comment on MUFY's competitivity or standards or how it compares to the A Levels, except that I study at a school which claims to be "one of the top universities in the world", and here we have students who come from everywhere and who've done one of A Levels, IB, UEC, SAM, MUFY, SATs and a plethora of other qualifications.
Of course, MUFY isn't the most universal qualification there is, but there is no question that you can get admitted to a school for Law in the UK - it's just that it may be harder if you're going for something in Britain's top 5. Economics at said schools is also highly competitive (note Oxford does not have straight Economics). Business, Accounting, Finance, Management etc are fairly easy to get into (again, Oxbridge will be the only real challenge for any course they have, unless you're doing Medicine which is competitive all over the place).
