Winning a first nations' league or a first gold cup since 2000 would be huge:

In doing so, Canada could use the 2027 Gold Cup almost exclusively for players under the age of 23 to provide valuable competitive minutes. There will still be opportunities to win a trophy with the 2027 Nations League and the 2029 Gold Cup.
