Prior to the event, a "gentleman's agreement" was attempted at the instigation of Alberta lead Ben Hebert with the aim of stopping teams from swapping brooms among themselves, which had been an issue at that years Scotties Tournament of Hearts. There, some teams had swapped the skip's broom, as skips do less sweeping, and therefore would be fresher, and therefore more effective. However, the teams at the Brier could not come to an agreement, and so some teams took advantage of broom swapping, with Team Alberta themselves mastering the practice, helping them to win the event.Cullen John Curling Rocks: Chronicles of the Roaring Game 2025 Douglas & McIntyre Madeira Park, BC 9781771624558 206 Ice conditions Toward the end of the week, ice conditions became poor, as warmer, wet weather descended upon the capital, creating a layer of frost on the ice. The arena lacked a dehumidifier which made the problem worse, as there was no way of removing the moisture in the air. Manitoba skip Mike McEwen claimed the ice was the "second-worst ice conditions he's ever played on".Wiecek Paul Bush-league decisions make Brier laughable http://www.winnipegfreepress.com/sports/curling/bush-league-decisions-make-brier-laughable-371834561.html Winnipeg Free Press February 5, 2020 March 11, 2016 Conditions returned to normal for the final championship weekend.Rice Waubgeshig Wet weather causing problems for curlers at Brier this week https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/wet-weather-ice-conditions-brier-1.3487586 CBC February 5, 2020 March 11, 2016 Teams The 2016 Brier field has been considered by some to be among the best ever.Koreen Mike 'Epic' field could be best ever at Brier curling championship http://www.torontosun.com/2016/02/15/epic-field-could-be-best-ever-at-brier-curling-championship Toronto Sun February 5, 2020 February 15, 2016Hall Vicki Brier magnifies gap between curling's elite and club teams http://www.winnipegsun.com/2016/03/02/brier-magnifies-gap-between-curlings-elite-and-club-teams Winnipeg Sun February 5, 2020 https://web.archive.org/web/20160308225423/http://www.winnipegsun.com/2016/03/02/brier-magnifies-gap-between-curlings-elite-and-club-teams March 8, 2016 March 2, 2016 dead The event features two Olympic champion skips, two World Champion skips, four Brier champion skips, and ten of the top 17 teams in the country (including six of the top ten in the world),Order of Merit – Men https://www.curlingzone.com/rankings.php?task=week&orderby=ytd&oomid=81&eventyear=2016&week=29 CurlingZone February 5, 2020 according to the CTRS standings. Coming off of a bronze medal showing at the 2015 Ford World Men's Curling Championship, the defending Brier champion Pat Simmons rink from Calgary returns to represent Team Canada.

Two teams are making their debut at the 2016 Brier. The World #2 ranked Mike McEwen rink who lost in five of the last six provincial championship finals, finally won the Manitoba championship, earning the right to represent Manitoba for the first time at the Brier. Also making their debut is Team Nunavut, skipped by Wade Kingdon. Nunavut was granted a direct entry to the Brier for the first time in 2015, but opted to field a team for the first time in 2016. For the first time, Curling Canada is allowing each team to field a player from out of province. Players living outside the province or territory of their team includes Brent Laing of Alberta (lives in Ontario), Chris Schille of the Northwest Territories (lives in Alberta) and Ryan Fry of Northern Ontario (who lives in Ontario, but in Toronto).
