Hello,
According to Health Canada (
https://www.canada.ca/fr/sante-publique/services/publications/vaccins-immunisation/guide-canadien-immunisation-declaration-vaccination-antigrippale-2019-2020.html
) between 18 and 64 years old, one should use a VII3-SD or a VII4-SD indifferently. The influvac is in the first category, the Fluzone in the second. So both are adequate. (On the other hand, the Fluzone HD should be used for people over 65).
Have a nice day
