Canada is in pretty good shape for the maximum two Olympic spots for women (top 8 nations), but the Canadian men are on the bubble to keep two (of a maximum of three) spots. Canada is currently ranked 11th in men by nations, but it is nations 6th to 13th in rankings who get two spots, and there are a couple of nations coming up behind us (including Sweden and New Zealand) that could knock us out of the top-13 ranking.
