2005 The National was held November 2–6, 2005, at the Port Hawkesbury Civic Centre[1] in Port Hawkesbury, Nova Scotia. The total purse of the event was $100,000. It was the first (men's) Grand Slam event of the 2005-06 curling season.

Ontario's Wayne Middaugh rink defeated Saskatchewan's Pat Simmons team. It was Middaugh's third outright victory in four tournaments up to that point in the season.[2] Middaugh's win gave him a career Grand Slam, and his team took home $28,000 for the win. Team Simmons took home $16,000, with semifinalists Randy Ferbey of Edmonton and Ontario's Glenn Howard winning $12,000 each.[3]

The semifinals and finals were broadcast on Sportsnet.[4]
