Duck comes into blindside flanker for Emily Chancellor, joined by captain Shannon Parry and Grace Hamilton.
Meanwhile, Morgan forms a new-look halves combination with Arabella McKenzie, who is elevated to the starting side after her strong showing against the USA.
They are joined in the starting side by Reds centre Cecilla Smith, pushing Pauline Piliae-Rasabale back to fullback and Mahalia Murphy and Trilleen Pomare to the bench.
“It’s going to be great to see what Arabella, Piper, Cecilia and Layne can do from the initial kick-off in this game," Tregonning said in a statement.
“Every player we’ve shifted into the starting team have been extremely impressive in our last couple of games and the team is eager to stamp their authority of this game early."
Brumbies backrower Grace Kemp is in line for her debut off the bench, joined by the returning Sera Naiqama.
Kemp produced a dominant performance for the Australian Barbarians against Japan last month, looking to make an impact if called upon.
“Again, we’ve been able to debut several players during the Series and it’s showcased the depth we have in the squad, I think this will be clear to see when Grace (Kemp) gets her opportunity to play, she’s an extremely talented player," Tregonning added.
“We’ve had some pretty close results during our time in New Zealand and the side has taken a lot away from our recent performances however, we’ll be looking to ensure we finish the Series on a positive note against Canada this Saturday.”
The game will be shown LIVE, ad-free and on demand on Stan Sport from 11:30 am.
