The International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF) voted for the Austrian bid which included all divisions. Fleury revealed that the CAHA had limited its bid to the top five countries of the A-division to exclude the East German national team, to avoid embarrassing the Government of Canada due to travel visa issues for East Germany that had occurred at the 1962 World Championships.
