I don't think it's faulty. If Canada built enough stadia in the next 10 years to host the Men's World Cup, I think that Canada would be essentially a lock to host the 2026 world cup (yes, even over the US). However, there is ZERO chance of that happening.
Toronto winning a 2020 or 2024 Summer Olympic bid would probably take care of the large stadium requirement - but there would still be a long ways to go in terms of stadia.
