In last year’s PEI Mixed final game, former Canadian Junior champion Brett Gallant and his rink stole a single in the final end to edge the defending Canadian Mixed champion Robert Campbell foursome 5-4. Gallant, with teammates Erin Carmody, Anson Carmody, and Michelle Mackie, went undefeated in the double knockout event, winning both A and B section finals over Campbell.
