Canada, coached for this stage by Raptors head coach Nick Nurse, enters the window at 6-0 and is the only undefeated team in the Americas. Of 80 teams attempting to qualify, 30 will make the World Cup, along with hosts Japan and the Philippines who are already in. In the Americas region, Canada will be in Group E for this round, along with Venezuela and Argentina , Dominican Republic , Panama and the Bahamas . There are also six teams vying in Group F. The top three finishers from each group advance to the World Cup, along with the best fourth-place team.

A win over Argentina would put Canada, ranked 18th in the world, into the 2023 edition, which runs from Aug. 25 to Sept. 10, 2023 and will also have some games in Indonesia. Canada is hoping for better than its 21st-place finish in 2019 in China, or its 22nd-place result in 2010 . Canada’s best finish was 6th in 1978 in the Philippines and 6th again four years later in Colombia.
