[1][2] The challenge was used to determine the second team from the Americas Zone to qualify for the 2022 World Men's Curling Championship, as the United States already qualifies as the host nation.

It is the second time Canada has participated in the challenge, with their first being in 2018 where they defeated Brazil 3–0 in the best-of-five series.

For the 2022 Championships, the United States has automatically claimed the first slot, due to being the host country of the event.

Mexico and Brazil challenged Canada, who would have otherwise qualified automatically due to their finish at the 2021 World Men's Curling Championship.

The winning team earns the second Americas Zone slot at the World Championships and the runner-up earns the one Americas Zone slot at the 2022 World Qualification Event, giving them another attempt to qualify for the Championships.
