Team Saskatchewan, who was skipped by Vera Pezer captured the championship by defeating both British Columbia 10–7 in the semifinal and Alberta 9–2 in the final. This was Saskatchewan's fourth championship and third in a row. This would be the first of three straight titles for Pezer. Pezer's second, Joyce McKee became the first player to have won three Canadian women's championships as McKee previously won as a skip in 1961 and 1969. The event had particularly good ice conditions for the time, due in part to cool weather and small crowds. The small crowds were blamed on a lack of a middle class in Newfoundland, and the small numbers of curlers in the province.Even with three losses Pezer has a second chance February 26, 1971 24 Saskatoon Star-Phoenix https://www.newspapers.com/clip/93721694/star-phoenix/ January 29, 2022 https://web.archive.org/web/20220611232915/https://www.newspapers.com/clip/93721694/star-phoenix/ 2022-06-11 British Columbia's 3–2 victory over Saskatchewan in Draw 5 set two tournament records for the fewest combined points scored between two teams in one game (5) and the most blank ends in one game (5). The lowest combined score would be matched four more times (1986, 1988, and twice in 1999). The blank ends record was matched in 1981 and eventually was broken in 1986.Canadian Women Records https://stats.curling.io/canadian-women/records Curling Canada Stats Archive Curling Canada 22 February 2023 The Nova Scotia rink ended up becoming the third team to finish round robin play winless.
