Team Ontario, who was skipped by Marilyn Darte won the championship on home soil after defeating defending champion Linda Moore and Team Canada 7–3 in the final. This was the first women's championship for Ontario and the first of two skipped by Darte (later Bodogh). This was the third time that the host province had won the event, joining New Brunswick in 1963 and Saskatchewan in 1972. [3]
Darte's rink would go onto represent Canada at the 1986 World Women's Curling Championship on home soil in Kelowna, British Columbia, which they also won.
The event set or tied several scoring records of which have either been tied or still stand as of 2023. [4] [5]
- In Draw 9, Newfoundland skip Sue Anne Bartlett became the first player in Canadian women's championship history to have played in 100 games.
- Canada's 8–0 victory over Alberta in Draw 8 was the fourth time that a shutout occurred with the others being in 1963, 1970, and 1973. Additionally, this game only lasted four ends, which set a record for the fewest ends played in one game, which has since been matched twice in 1998 and 1999.
- Canada's 3–2 victory over Newfoundland in the semifinal set the following records:
- The five combined points scored tied a record set in 1971 for the lowest combined score between both teams in one game, which has been matched three times since. This still remains the lowest combined score in a semifinal game.
- The six blank ends set a new record for most blank ends in one game, which has since been matched twice. This still remains a record for the most blank ends in a semifinal game.
- Newfoundland blanked three straight ends beginning in the fifth end, which set a record for most consecutive blank ends in a semifinal game which hasn't been broken since.
- The two points scored by Newfoundland also set a record for fewest points scored in a semifinal game by a single team, which hasn't been broken since either.
- The three points scored in the final by Canada set a record for the fewest points scored in a final by one team. This has been matched three times since (1987, 1992, and 1994).
