Colleen Patricia Jones CM[1] (born December 16, 1959) is a Canadian curler and television personality. She is best known as the skip of two women's world championship teams and six Tournament of Hearts Canadian women's championships, including an unprecedented four titles in a row and held the record for most Tournament of Hearts wins from when she won her 67th game in 1994[2] until her eventual 152 wins were eclipsed by Jennifer Jones in 2021.[3]

Jones also serves as a reporter and weather presenter for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, and as a curling commentator for NBC in the United States, particularly during the 2010 Winter Olympics.

In 2018, Jones finished second to Sidney Crosby in a listing of the greatest 15 athletes in Nova Scotia's history.[4] In 2019, she was named the third greatest Canadian curler in history in a TSN poll of broadcasters, reporters and top curlers.[5] In 2016, Jones was awarded the Order of Sport, marking her induction into Canada's Sports Hall of Fame.[6]

She currently coaches the Owen Purcell rink.[7]
