For shallow sloped roofs what is the best type of roofing?

Is it better to use ” Ice and Water ” material with shingles on top or burned on rubber membrane?
The house is in Toronto. Thanks
The roof is on an addition to a house. It is about 600 sq. feet. I do not know the slope, maybe a rise of 4 feet over a run of 20 feet.

For what it’s worth I think rubber roofing is the better way to go.
My pack porch has about 4-12 pitch it has rubber roofing on it, a few years back I was cleaning the gutters and some kid climbed up on the roof and poked it a few times with a screw driver. I went and bought some white roll roofing and put that on top of the rubber. It looks way nicer then the rubber and I have never had a problem with it though.
