[1] Team Ontario, consisting of Brian Longley, Joe Gurowka, Art Lobel and Jim Sharples of Toronto won the men's event, defeating the heavily favoured Barry Fry Manitoba team in the final, 4–3.
Ontario skip Sharples scored a deuce in the fourth end, and was on the defence thereafter, playing a wide-open game.
[2] The turning point in the extra end was when one of Manitoba's third Don Duguid's stones picked on a stray hair.
Team Saskatchewan, consisting of Joyce McKee, Doreen Thomas, Donna Trapp and Sheila Rowan of Saskatoon won the women's event, defeating British Columbia's Bessie Low rink in a "see-saw" final, 6–5.
In the extra, Saskatchewan's third Trapp made a raise triple takeout to clear the house of BC stones, which would eventually lead to a hit-and-stick for Rowan to claim the championship.
