The 2016 Scotties Tournament of Hearts was held from February 20 to 28 at Revolution Place in Grande Prairie, Alberta. The winning team represented Canada at the 2016 World Women's Curling Championship held from March 19 to 27 at the Credit Union iPlex in Swift Current, Saskatchewan.
The 2016 Scotties is as notable for who did not qualify for the event as who did. Notably absent is the #1 ranked team in the world, Rachel Homan, who was defeated in the Ontario final by her club-mates, 2005 Hearts runner-up Jenn Hanna, who is representing Ontario. The 2015 runner up Val Sweeting rink lost in the Alberta final to the Chelsea Carey rink, the #5 ranked Tracy Fleury lost in the Northern Ontario final to 2010 Scotties bronze medalist Krista McCarville and the #8 ranked Stefanie Lawton rink lost in the Saskatchewan final to Jolene Campbell. The headline team for the 2016 Scotties is the defending Scotties and Olympic champion, Jennifer Jones who is representing Team Canada. Also returning from 2015 is the Suzanne Birt rink from Prince Edward Island, the Sylvie Robichaud rink from New Brunswick and the Kerry Galusha rink from the Northwest Territories. 2004 Canadian Junior champion Jill Brothers is representing Nova Scotia for the second time as skip. 2004 Hearts runner-up Marie-France Larouche is representing Quebec for the 7th time as skip, in her first Scotties since 2012. 2007 Canadian Junior champion Stacie Curtis is representing Newfoundland and Labrador for the third time as skip. Skipping the Yukon team was Nicole Baldwin, returning to the Hearts for the first time since 2007. Making their Scotties debut is Kerri Einarson from Manitoba and Karla Thompson from British Columbia, while Nunavut was represented for the first time ever in the Scotties, and was skipped by Geneva Chislett.
