U.S. politics threaten to complicate Canada’s co-hosting of 2026 World Cup

OTTAWA – With less than a year to go until the 2026 World Cup, political tensions and U.S. policy threaten to pose problems as Canada, the United States and Mexico prepare to co-host the tournament.

Next year’s FIFA World Cup will be the biggest ever, with the three countries hosting a record 48 teams. Between June 11 and July 19, they will play 104 matches, most of them in the U.S.


The World Cup will do what it does best, leave tax payers holding the bag.
