He is the first curler to have played for three different provinces at the Brier (since then, the feat has been duplicated by Ryan Fry and Morris' son John).

Two years later, he made the 1982 Labatt Brier playing as the third for the Don Aitken rink from the CFB St-Jean Curling Club in Quebec.

This time, he skipped the Ontario team of Lovel Lord, Dave Merklinger and Bill Fletcher out of the R.C.N.

He coached two Canadian junior championship teams (his son's in 1998 (co-coach with Brian Savill) and Rachel Homan's in 2010).

[11] Morris is the grandson of Saskatchewan's 1933 provincial champion skip Cliff McLaughlin, making three generations of his family to compete in the Brier.
