The 1963 Diamond "D" Championship the Canadian women's curling championship was held from February 25 to 28, 1963 at the St. Andrew's Curling Club[1] in Saint John, New Brunswick.

Team New Brunswick, who was skipped by Mabel DeWare won the event by finishing the round robin with an 8-1 record. This was New Brunswick's first championship.[2] As of 2024, DeWare's rink is the only New Brunswick rink has won a Canadian women's curling championship. This was also the first time in which a team won the championship on their home soil.

British Columbia and Ontario finished tied for second with 7-2 records, necessitating a tiebreaker between the two teams to determine the runner-up. British Columbia won runner-up as they defeated Ontario 6-4. This was also the first tiebreaker that was scheduled for 10 ends as the previous tiebreakers in 1961 were scheduled for 12 ends.
