Team British Columbia, who was skipped by Kelley Law won the event beating Ontario in the final 9–4. This was BC's eighth title overall and the sixth time a province has won a title on home soil. Law's rink became the first rink to win the championship as a fourth seed since the introduction of the Page playoff system in 1995 and also became the first rink since 1989 and fourth team ever to win a championship after having to win a tiebreaker game.

Law's rink would go onto represent Canada at the 2000 Ford World Women's Curling Championship in Glasgow, Scotland, which they won. The national championship also qualified them for the 2001 Canadian Olympic Curling Trials in Regina, Saskatchewan, which they also won and got to represent Canada at the 2002 Winter Olympics in Ogden, Utah, United States.
