The Curling News (TCN), formerly the Canadian Curling News is a publication dedicated to the sport of curling. Formerly a monthly print newspaper, it now publishes its articles on-line.

The Canadian Curling News was founded in 1957^[1] by future Canadian Curling Hall of Fame inductee Ted Thonger in Calgary.^[2] The publication had 7,800 subscriptions by the end of its first season in print.^[3]

Former editors of the publication include Larry Wood,^[4] Doug Maxwell,^[5] and George Karrys.^[6]

Maxwell shut down the publication in 1994,^[7] but later brought it back. 1998 Olympic silver medallist George Karrys bought the publication in 2003,^[8] and re-branded it as The Curling News.^[9] Karrys served as Editor-In-Chief until 2019.^[10]

The Curling News was acquired by Roustan Media in 2019. The publication suspended its print operation during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. Later that year, it formed a partnership with Sports Illustrated,^[11] which lasted until 2024.
