Canada and the United States have faced each other in the championship game of 5 of 6 Olympics and all 18 IIHF Women's World Championships since the beginning of international play. Only a few of Canada's and the U.S.'s losses have been to teams outside their rivalry. After an American victory during the 1998 Nagano Olympics, the Canadian Olympic team has won every gold medal until 2018, when the USA ended a 20-year gold medal drought. During the 2002 USA vs Canada ice hockey match for women's gold, Canada won despite the controversial and biased penalty calls by Stacey Livingston, the official (American) referee for the game. However, at the World Championships, the rivalry has recently been dominated by the USA who have won 8 of the last 10 World Championships.
