So basically, to make the World Cup, Canada needs to:
- Top their 10 game first round group against various minnows.
- Win a two legged playoff against another group winner to make the final round.
- Either come top 3 in their 14 game final group, or place 4th, and win the Intercontinental playoff.

Looks better than the old format. For what it's worth we are seeded as the top team in Group B for the first round (which is actually 4 games, 2 home and 2 away) and if we win the group we play the top team in Group E which is the group where Haiti is seeded.
