The midfielder started and completed the Group A encounter in Atlanta, setting up Julian Alvarez's 49th-minute opener.
Mac Allister bravely beat Canada goalkeeper Maxime Crepeau to a Lionel Messi threaded pass and nudged the ball into Alvarez's path inside the penalty area.
Lautaro Martinez then wrapped up the win for Argentina with his finish two minutes before the end of the 90.
The defending champions are next in action in the early hours on Wednesday when they meet Chile.
