The 2000 Scott Tournament of Hearts, the Canadian women's national curling championship, was held from February 19 to 27, 2000 at the CN Centre in Prince George, British Columbia.[2] The total attendance for the week was 54,778.[1]
Team British Columbia, who was skipped by Kelley Law won the event beating Ontario in the final 9–4. This was BC's eighth title overall and the sixth time a province has won a title on home soil. Law's rink became the first rink to win the championship as a fourth seed since the introduction of the Page playoff system in 1995 and also became the first rink since 1989 and fourth team ever to win a championship after having to win a tiebreaker game.[3]
Law's rink would go onto represent Canada at the 2000 Ford World Women's Curling Championship in Glasgow, Scotland, which they won. The national championship also qualified them for the 2001 Canadian Olympic Curling Trials in Regina, Saskatchewan, which they also won and got to represent Canada at the 2002 Winter Olympics in Ogden, Utah, United States.
