The men's curling world championship in Glasgow was cancelled Saturday morning to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Brad Gushue and his rink from Newfoundland and Labrador was going to represent Canada after winning the Brier.

The University of Alberta Pandas defeated the UNB Reds 10-2 in the U Sports women's curling final, while the Laurier Golden Hawks topped the Dalhousie Tigers 8-5 for the men's curling title in Portage la Prairie, Manitoba on Sunday.

In the span of a few days, Canada's curling landscape has shifted dramatically. The country's past women's and men's Olympic teams and last year's women's world champion team have all split.

The bonspiel took place in Edmonton March 11-14, starting the same day COVID-19 was declared a global pandemic.

When the World Curling Federation cancelled the women's, men's and mixed doubles championships set for March and April, it said it would be discussing potential options including rescheduling the events — perhaps playing them in the fall at one venue. CBC Sports has learned that will no longer be the case.

The World Curling Federation announced Thursday it is proposing to the International Olympic Committee that the 2021 world curling championships will determine which countries will book their tickets to Beijing 2022.

As major sporting events around the world continue to be postponed or cancelled in the midst of the pandemic, the tentacles of COVID-19 are now starting to stretch into next year's curling season in Canada.
