The 2024 Montana's Brier, Canada's national men's curling championship, was held from March 1 to 10 at the Brandt Centre in Regina, Saskatchewan.
Team Canada skip Brad Gushue asked for the spectator to be removed in the ninth end of his game against Nova Scotia.
When Gushue was about to throw his final rock of the end, he signalled a technical timeout to deal with the matter, as the fan was distracting the team from the front row.
[3] Newfoundland and Labrador lead Alex Smith broke the previous record for longest gap between Brier appearances at 35 years.
It was also the first time in his 17 Brier appearances that Jamie Koe finished with a better record (5–3) than his brother, Kevin (2–6) who skipped one of the Alberta pre-qualifier teams.
In the other game, Team Bottcher prevailed 9–7 despite a burnt rock in the 10th end (lead Ben Hebert touched one of third Marc Kennedy's stones while sweeping).
[12] March 10, the final day of competition started with the semifinal between Bottcher's top-seeded Alberta rink against the host Saskatchewan team.
The host team, skipped by Mike McEwen won the match 7–3 sending Saskatchewan to its first Brier final since 1995.
In fourth end, they took a commanding 5–1 lead after Gushue split a rock outside the house into the rings to score three points.
In the eighth, Saskatchewan third Colton Flasch missed an attempted triple takeout, which would eventually result in McEwen being forced to draw for a single.
In a change in the qualification format, the Brendan Bottcher and Matt Dunstone rinks automatically pre-qualified for the 2024 Brier field based on their 2022–23 Canadian Team Ranking Standings, which meant they bypassed the provincial qualifiers.
