After losing in the Brier final the previous two years, Al Hackner, who skipped Team Northern Ontario finally captured the Brier tankard in the third straight final appearance after defeating British Columbia, skipped by Brent Giles in the final 7–3. Northern Ontario advanced to the final after defeating Manitoba 8–5 in the semifinal. This was Northern Ontario's third Brier championship and the first of two titles skipped by Hackner.

The Hackner rink would go onto represent Canada in the 1982 Air Canada Silver Broom, the men's world curling championship held in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany which they captured the world championship as well.

Manitoba's 6–5 victory over New Brunswick in Draw 2 and British Columbia's 7–6 victory over Northern Ontario in Draw 12 were the sixth and seventh instances in which a game went into a second extra end in the Brier. This was also only the second Brier to feature multiple double extra end games, with the other occurring in 1965.
