Totally I spent 5 years in university. The first 2 years gave me an diploma of engineering, then I continued to study for another 2 years + 1 year co-op and received my engineering bachelor degree.
What should I put under the highest level of education? "Bachelor” or “Two or more certificates, one must be for a program of three or more years”?

You will have to get your ECA done to know what you can mention. You can check the Canadian equivalency of your degree here http://www.wes.org/ca/evaluations/preliminary.asp?.
aaww, how many years is your school's engineering bachelor degree? You can also probably choose to contact your school directly and ask which credentials you can claim to have earned, as part of your immigration application.

Thanks for your reply . But I attended university here in Canada, so I shouldn't need an ECA. Probably I should just contact OINP and see what they say.

I was admitted by the engineering dept. And surprisingly I got a diploma after the first two years. Students being admitted by the department could choose to graduate for the diploma, or keep going to get their degree. So after that, I continued for 2 academic years + 1 year co-op (which is also counted as 1 academic year) and got my bachelor degree.
So I would say it's a 4 year bachelor program + 1 year optional co-op program. I'll ask them tomorrow and see if I can claim that diploma as an independent credential.

That's what I thought as well, since you did the co-op, but you and your school are in a better position to know. You'll have to be prepared as well to submit the degrees and transcripts from your school to prove such. Good luck!
