The 2024 Co-op Canadian Open was held from November 5 to 10 at the Silent Ice Arena in Nisku, Alberta.[1] It was the second Grand Slam event and first major of the 2024–25 curling season.

In the women's final, Team Rachel Homan of Ottawa defeated Team Silvana Tirinzoni of Switzerland, 7–5. It was Homan's 16th career Slam. The team went undefeated at the event, which was held near Homan's adopted hometown of Beaumont, Alberta, and helped attract the event to the community.[2]

In the men's final, Team Bruce Mouat of Scotland beat Team Brad Gushue from Newfoundland, 6–3. Mouat took control of the game early, scoring three in the first end, and didn't look back from there. Team Mouat also went undefeated, going 7–0, and with the title, the team won their eighth grand slam.[3]

Of note, the number four ranked Anna Hasselborg rink from Sweden did not compete in the event as they instead focused on training for the 2024 European Curling Championships.[4] It was the first time the team did not participate in a Grand Slam event since the 2018 Tour Challenge.
