There's next to no chance of USA losing to Canada if you've been following both their trends this year..
In case you didn't know these are USA's results from last tournament.
38-12 bt. Wales
33-5 bt. Kenya
21-14 bt. Fiji
26-19 bt. Scotland
Only lost to SA and NZ.
I also very much doubt whether these continent qualifications will be one-off matches and not a series.
If you think there is next to no chance then I'd guess you don't watch much sevens and haven't followed it for very long.
If this year's series has taught us anything it's that results can swing very quickly! And there's only been 3 tournaments. One win over Fiji doesn't mean much in the greater scheme of things. Both Canada and the US have had big wins in the past.
Canada, with a very similar squad, finished well above the USA in last year's series (6th compared to 13th). They've started slowly this year but were on the improve in this recent tournament in South Africa - they had a couple of good wins against Scotland and Wales. Only a tight loss to France (after blowing a huge lead) kept them out of the quarter finals, but they went onto win the Bowl comfortably.
As for the regional qualifiers, who knows. My guess is they'll be tournaments with say 8 teams or so, and the final will be one game with 10 minute halves. That's how Sevens is in all tournaments so I doubt it will be different. The Gold medal will surely be decided by one match too.
