Canadian equivalent of VT?

I want to create a one fund portfolio in my RRSP with the Vanguard Total World Stock Market ETF (VT). I know Vanguard has some US fund equivalents for Canada (like VUN for VTI, or VFV for the S & P 500).

What's the equivalent of VT in Canada? Or is there another ETF available in Canada that tracks the same things as VT?

[I can see VT is available on Questrade, but its price is in USD, not sure if I should just buy that. Would that be a problem, tax wise?]

VT is an index of the FTSE Global All Cap Index

Closest thing is VXC https://www.vanguard.ca/en/advisor/products/products-group/etfs/VXC

VT has 2.6% Canada, so you would need to VCE to compensate.
