Canada head coach Kevin Rouet, speaking to World Rugby: "I'm very happy with the way we finished the game.
"The games will be tougher and tougher. To score 65 points, we're happy with that.
"A lot of small details [to work on]. People expect us to deliver now. People put us as favourites and the players need to be relaxed with that and go game by game. You felt that tension at the beginning of the game."

Canada captain Alex Tessier, speaking to World Rugby: "It's a good win for us. We remained in control. Our key point today was to keep the ball and be clinical in attack. We were composed and put a lot of points on the board, which is really satisfying.
"The way we started the game - we got too excited. Our ball retention will be key [in the next game] and cleaning up the offloads in our game. We need to remain disciplined in defence. We got penalised too many times in the first half - that's something to focus on.
"We're keeping it one game at a time, keeping our composure and switching our mindset to Wales."
