The "Canadian Women's Curling Championship", no longer called the "Canadian Ladies' Curling Championship", is mostly referred to as "The Scott Tournament of Hearts". Scott Paper Limited is involved in women's curling in Canada since 1928 and the women's championship is named "The Scott Tournament of Hearts" since 1982.

OBS

The expressions "National Women's Curling Championship" and "National Ladies' Curling Championship" are generics that were sometimes used to mean the Canadian Curling Championship for women. The word "Championship" is singular because only one champion, a women's team, was or is crowned at the end of the tournament now mainly referred to as "The Scott Tournament of Hearts".

CONT

Le «Championnat canadien de curling féminin» est appelé le «Tournoi des Cœurs de Scott». La papetière Papiers Scott Limitée est liée au curling féminin canadien depuis 1928 et le tournoi féminin porte le nom de «Tournoi des Cœurs de Scott» depuis 1982; la papetière écrit le nom du tournoi avec une majuscule à «Cœurs».

OBS

L'expression «Championnat national de curling féminin» est un générique qui a parfois été utilisé pour signifier le Championnat canadien de curling pour femmes. Le terme «Championnat» est singulier parce qu'un seul champion, une équipe de femmes, est couronné à l'issue du tournoi qu'on ne désigne plus que sous le nom de «Tournoi des Cœurs de Scott».
