having had both the fuji x-e1 and various canons there are pro's and cons to both. i loved the slower pace of the fuji, shots were taken with more time and consideration, the camera was a joy to use, great for carrying around all day, for landscapes and cityscapes just sitting down, setting up the shot how i wanted , and using the camera and the controls in full manual took me back to the days when i first started.
the downside for me was the EVF. as much as its very high resolution i just couldnt get on with as well as i wanted. the lag when following a moving subject and the clarity compared to an optical viewfinder at times made it difficult to use when tracking moving subjects ( wildlife and even people ).
the canons n the otehr hand, obviously alot heavier to carry around all the gear. but ease and quickness of use . literally switch on and go whatever the situation without even having to think about what i was doing. very much almost point and shoot at times ( which can be a negative ). tracking moving subjects with the optical viewfinder so much easier to deal with.
Image quality with both.. all the current fuji lenses are superb . with a canon DSLR its trickier as if you stick with kit lenses images are never going to be as crisp and clean compared to the fuji kit lenses. you have to step up really to L glass to achieve that same quality which is not only expensive but heavy to carry around too.
honestly if i had a choice i would have kept both systems. the fuji for all my static work ( landscapes, seascapes, still life ) and the canon for wildlife, people and portrait work, sports and avaiation.
really you have to decide first what your main area of shooting is and of course try the fuji out ( i assume youve already used canon before if not then try them both out )
see how they feel in your hands and how you find the controls and ease of use, how you find the viewfinder and the overal performance of the camera first
