The 2012 Tim Hortons Brier, the Canadian men's national curling championship, was held from March 3 to March 11 at the Credit Union Centre in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan.{{cite web|url=http://www.curling.ca/2011/03/15/saskatoon-awarded-2012-tim-hortons-brier/|title=Saskatoon awarded 2012 Tim Hortons Brier|date=15 March 2011|publisher=Canadian Curling Association}} This Brier marked the sixth time that Saskatoon hosted the Brier;{{cite web|url=http://creditunioncentre.com/event.php?event=174-282a8f5b|title=Tim Hortons Brier|publisher=Credit Union Centre}} the last time that the Brier was hosted in Saskatoon was in 2004. The winner of the Brier, Glenn Howard, represented Canada at the 2012 Capital One World Men's Curling Championship in Basel, Switzerland.
In the final, Ontario's Glenn Howard defeated Kevin Koe in ten ends with a score of 7–6. Howard won his fourth Brier title overall and his second Brier title as skip.{{cite web|url=http://www.curling.ca/2012/03/12/ontarios-howard-wins-fourth-brier-title/|title=Ontario's Howard wins fourth Brier title|date=12 March 2012|publisher=Canadian Curling Association}} Ontario third Wayne Middaugh became the first person in Brier history to win at three different positions, as second in 1993, as skip in 1998, and as third in 2012. Middaugh also set a record for best performance by a third in the final (with 98%), and won the Hec Gervais Award, which was awarded to the most valuable player in the playoffs.{{cite web|url=https://www.tsn.ca/curling/story/?id=390102|title=Ontario's Howard takes Brier with win over Alberta's Koe|date=12 March 2012|publisher=TSN Curling}}
This edition of the Brier saw the first Northwest Territories/Yukon team advancing to the page playoffs in Brier history since the induction of the playoffs format in 1980.{{cite web|url=https://www.tsn.ca/curling/story/?id=389783|title=Yukon and Northwest Territories make first Brier playoffs|publisher=TSN Curling|date=8 March 2012}} Previously, the best performance from the Territories came in 1975, when Yukon's Don Twa and his team tied for second place after the round robin. In 1985, the Territories made it to a tiebreaker before being knocked out. The Brier also saw Ontario skip Glenn Howard breaking the record for most career games played at the Brier, which was previously set by his brother Russ Howard at 174 career games, after defeating Saskatchewan in Draw 10.{{cite web|url=https://www.tsn.ca/curling/story/?id=389619|title=Howard sets record in Ontario's win over Saskatchewan|publisher=TSN Curling|date=6 March 2012}}
