It was a monumental occasion when Canada stepped onto soccer’s biggest stage in Qatar, and while its World Cup campaign ended miserably, there is still hope moving forward. CTVNews.ca takes a look at the three talking points ahead of the next World Cup in 2026.

Those are the numbers of Canada’s latest World Cup campaign, which means it now holds the joint-worst record in tournament history with six losses from its six games. El Salvador is the other country which holds the same record.Heading into the 2022 edition, Canada pulled off the unthinkable in qualifying, and its success was not a fluke. A determined game plan led to routine performances with only two losses out of 14 games.
Those were resilient performances from the 41st-ranked country, who had nothing to lose but everything to gain. Canada was the lowest-ranked CONCACAF nation during the World Cup draw and subsequently placed in Pot 4 before the draw was made, meaning it would naturally have a challenging run to try and reach the knockouts.
Alongside the United States and Mexico, Canada will host the 2026 campaign, and virtually every area on the pitch needs to step up to the next level. But most importantly, in midfield and attack.
