Other Manitoba teams at the Brier

[edit]

Beginning in 2015, the defending Brier champion automatically earned a berth for the following years' national championship as "Team Canada". A team from Manitoba has yet to play as "Team Canada" at the Brier. A Wildcard entry was added in 2018, which was expanded to three entries in 2021. Two of these entries became prequalifying entries in 2024.
