Is my 6.2 CGPA good enough for eligibility to apply to universities for a Master's?

It depends. A 6.2 CGPA on a 10-point scale may not meet the typical minimum requirement for many Canadian universities, which often expect at least 6.9 - 7.0 CGPA for master's programs.

However, some universities have more flexible criteria and may consider your application if you have strong work experience, strong letters of recommendation, a compelling statement of purpose, or good English proficiency scores.

Your CGPA might limit your options but does not automatically disqualify you.
