The Canadian Open, known as the Co-Op Canadian Open for sponsorship reasons, is an annual bonspiel, or curling tournament. It is one of the five Grand Slams and four "majors" on the men's and women's curling tours. A women's event was introduced in the 2014–15 curling season.

In 2021, when it was supposed to be held outside of Canada for the first time, it was going to just be called the Open. However, the event was not held in 2021 and 2022 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2023, the event was named the Co-op Canadian open for sponsorship reasons.
The event features 16 men's and women's teams. The top 16 teams on the World Curling team ranking system qualify.[1]
Since 2024, the event features four groups of four teams each. Each team plays everyone in their pool once, plus a crossover game against a team in another pool.[1]
