Al Hackner of Northern Ontario defeated Pat Ryan of Alberta to win his second Brier title.

The Hackner double

Hackner found himself in a two-point deficit coming into the tenth end, and he was forced to make a very tough double takeout and stick his shooter in order to tie the game. The shot allowed him to steal a point in the extra end when Ryan was heavy with his last stone.
