1960 Macdonald Brier

The 1960 Macdonald Brier, the Canadian men's national curling championship, was held from March 7 to 11, 1960 at Fort William Gardens in Fort William, Ontario. A total of 26,000 fans attended the event.

Team Saskatchewan, who was skipped by Ernie Richardson captured the Brier Tankard with a record of 9–1 in round robin play. This was the third time in which Saskatchewan had captured the Brier championship. Richardson became the third skip to win back-to-back Brier championships joining Gordon Hudson (1928 and 1929) and Matt Baldwin (1957 and 1958). Unlike Hudson and Baldwin before him, Richardson's rink was the first to win back-to-back Briers with the same four team members.

Richardson's rink would go on to complete in the 1960 Scotch Cup in Scotland where they repeated as World Champions defeating Scotland 5 games to none.
