The event was originally going to be held from January 5 to 9 2022,[2] but on January 3, following new COVID-19 regulations implemented by the province, CurlON decided to suspend the event.[3] The winning team would have represented Ontario at the 2022 Scotties Tournament of Hearts in Thunder Bay, Ontario, to be held January 28 to February 6 2022.
On January 7, CurlON announced that Team Rachel Homan would represent Ontario at the 2022 Scotties Tournament of Hearts, unless Homan is chosen to represent Canada in mixed doubles at the 2022 Winter Olympics, with a plan to hold the provincial championship in April 2022.[4] Homan was chosen to play in the Olympics, so Team Hollie Duncan was chosen to represent Ontario instead. Instead, Team Homan (without Homan herself), skipped by normal third Emma Miskew will play at the national Tournament of Hearts as Team Wild Card #3.
On January 19, CurlON announced that the provincial championship would be rescheduled for April 7 to 10, and that the winner will earn a bye to the 2023 Ontario Scotties Tournament of Hearts, and that there would be a purse of $15,000 for the event.[1]
