For more than 50 years, Cambridge has been Ontarios largest city with no passenger rail connections. Find out how that may change and how we would like to see Cambridge better linked to the GTA in our latest article. Link in bio or at www.tritag.ca/blog/2026/11/13/go-trains-for-cambridge/

submitted by /u/alisoncjhHi Cambridge. I’m McAuley, a filmmaker from Woodstock, and I wanted to share something with a local connection.
This fall we shot a short film called Death, Where Is Thy Sting?, a proof of concept for a feature I’ve written. It’s a quiet drama about a young drywaller who keeps visiting a former classmate in a rural hospice, fixing things that aren’t broken.
One of our two leads, Joshua Lautsch-Rees, who plays the boy Eli, is from Cambridge. It’s his first screen role ever. Out of everyone who auditioned, there was something about his audition I kept coming back to. Eli is very closed off, and Joshua didn’t push to make it moving. He let the character stay quiet and work with his hands, which is exactly what the part needed.
Editing runs through about January, then festivals next year. The plan is to make the feature here in Southwestern Ontario.
I’m not asking for anything. But here’s the question the whole film is built around:
If you had one afternoon left, where would you go?
You can answer in the comments, or call our line at 226-547-0253. It goes straight to voicemail, day or night. We are sharing some of the phone answers every Thursday on the film’s pages.
If you are struggling, call or text 9-8-8, any time.
Follow the film Instagram, Facebook or TikTok.

Happy to answer any questions below : )

submitted by /u/Livid_Temporary9824Hey everyone,
I’m looking for a local accountant who has experience dealing with estate and final tax returns.
My father passed away approximately 8 years ago, and I need to have his final tax return completed for the last year he was alive.
I’m hoping to find someone knowledgeable and experienced with this type of situation.
If anyone has a recommendation or can point me in the right direction, I’d really appreciate it.
Hi. I'm just wondering if it's still closed and if we know how long it will be closed? I looked for information and couldn't find any.

He got out last night around 10pm in the bismark/blair area by devils creek. We have reached out to ground search and rescue. He is a maine coon, he is timid and has never got out before. Any tips will help!
submitted by /u/PhunkMyButtIs it really unsafe? I have 2 kids under 3. I fell in love with the home, it has a lot of character. But it seems like most people are advising us to stay away from this area.
Thanks!
submitted by /u/Top_Operation435This is the first I’m hearing of this but… wow.

submitted by /u/dinisthemenaceGuitarist and bassist looking for a reliable, creative drummer from the Cambridge or (Waterloo, Kitchener) area for a dynamic original project. We want to eventually build this back up to a 5 piece lineup with more guitars to really open things up sonically, but right now our main priority is locking down the right rhythm section.
We aren't interested in pinning a generic genre label on our sound, but My Bloody Valentine, CAN, Sonic Youth, Radiohead, Deerhunter and Pavement are all deeply important influences. The music is driven by alternate guitar tunings, heavy texture, hypnotic rhythms and melodies, high energy at times and very dynamic.
We have a dedicated jam space in Waterloo ready to go with no rent split required, a full recording setup with all the gear needed to track and release music, and guaranteed shows since we can get us booked and playing live.
We are looking for someone who can lock in, hold down a driving rhythm, keep tight timing, and carry their own weight. If you think outside the box, love music, are reliable, and want to build a unique original sonic identity from the ground up, send a DM with a brief summary of your playing background or any links to your work.

submitted by /u/Putrid_Republic_7254Hi, Just asking for the first cohort that graduated MLS, how do they grade you in simulation or your last semester before your clinical? Would there still be a tests or its just pass or fail since you only get to do lab stuff? Thanks.
submitted by /u/RichPiano3127Hi I applied for the Diagnostic Medical Sonography program for Sept 2027 and I was just wondering if anyone who is currently in the program can tell me what the admissions process was like, what your average was and if you have any information regarding the accreditation status of the program
submitted by /u/GhettimamasIf you live in Cambridge you know that Telus had 3rd party companies/contractors installing fibre. We did run into quite a few issues with driveway damage and constant confusion about what a duplex is, but that's another story. So Telus promised a promo price and bill credits when they came door to door. We had to reschedule our Telus instal inside multiple times because of mistakes done with the outdoor aspects. Which we weren't in a rush, we have a great price with another company on a legacy account. So it's finally installed and they created another new account for us, 1 with service and 1 stating our address isn't serviceable somehow. So the credits promised weren't applied. When I called to ask about it, they implied for 15 minutes that I was lying. Then when I finally got a word in to explain that the representative recorded the offer and contract info over a Telus secure line in person, suddenly the rep was the liar because this deal didn't exist. They even said I wasn't a new customer because I started service a couple weeks ago for the first time ever with this company. After explaining several times he finally "went to check" and suddenly I had a credit I was promised. So they implied that reps "have a way of selling service" and apparently everyone is a 3rd party. It leaves me feeling icky that I'm now locked into a contract with them. Did anyone else not see a promised offer come through with a new service?

submitted by /u/CRXCRZHi all,
New to this group and just bought a house in the hespeler area! I looked up parking online around the parking in the street but was still a little confused.
When street parking overnight outside of winter months (Jan-March) do you just apply for an overnight permit ? If you do get a ticket what’s the cost ?
Any general information would be super helpful.
Thank you in advance and looking forward to living in such a beautiful city and area! ☺️
submitted by /u/huge-spartan48Moved into a 70s house in Galt, not far from Churchill Park, back in March. Roof has old concrete tiles, couple are cracked and there's a damp patch in the attic after rain. Previous owner apparently just kept patching stuff.. For decades.
Not sure if it's flashing, underlayment or the tiles themselves. don't wanna rip the whole thing off if a proper repair would do.
Anyone local dealt with roofs recently? Do roofers inspect tile roofs anymore or instantly push replacements? Thanks for any answers!
submitted by /u/xeurexaJust a reminder if you are wondering when leaf collection is for your neighbourhood. Lots of leaves came down already so time to start thinking about raking.
submitted by /u/curseyouZeldaHi can those who are in or have been in the program right now please tell what we need for supplies? I’m talking down to the bone like even text books, good shoes? It would be a major help and so I don’t buy unnecessary things either ! Please and thank you!😊😊
submitted by /u/AcceptableCelery3575Hey, I am going to Conestoga for massage in the fall. I was just wondering if there are any current students or alumni who could give any advice or opinions on the program. What should I expect in the first week of class? Is it all syllabus talk, or any actually important learning? Anything helps, thanks!
submitted by /u/Creepy-Veterinarian2How long did it take for you to hear back from admissions after submitting your digital portfolio? Also is anyone here on a waitlist for Jan 2027?
submitted by /u/ltomatusHow likely is it to get off the waitlist before Jan?
I’m not too low on it , but have anyone been able to get off the waitlist before the same month of when school start ?
Also how much is the admission deposit?
I applied to Conestoga through the Ontario Colleges website with my preferred name, however when I got my acceptance letter from Conestoga it had my legal name on it (makes sense). My legal name was also used to make my student email, so I assumed the college had my legal name on file only.
So I just went to submit the preferred name form, and all my information is already filled out using my preferred name, so is it safe to assume that is the information that will be given to my instructors?
submitted by /u/FamilyFunAccount420Planing to apply for 2027 and have avg of 85% of all five course, mature student with post secondary diploma complete at conestoga collage 10 years ago with GPA of only 2. Do I have any chance ?? They will look my previous diploma or just these 5 recent course upgrade from TVO will be fine ?
submitted by /u/Neither_Car733Hello! Is anyone else feeling the same way? I start practical nursing AD in January and am feeling severe anxiety thinking about going into the course, also because I’ve been out of school for a whole year but has anyone else been feeling like this and to those who are in the program right now do you have any tips or any reality of how it’s actually like? I feel so much anxiety that I feel like I’m going into the wrong career but i definitely do like nursing and the short amount of school time
submitted by /u/AcceptableCelery3575Hi, I am beginning to study for the BU247 midterm. I had a hard time with accounting in first year (got a 7) and find myself struggling a bit this year. Does anyone have any advice on how to effectively study for this midterm and do well. I really want to do well in the course. I am worried about the fact that it is online and final answer only, so if I mess up just a bit I won't get any marks.
Thanks so much I appreciate any advice

submitted by /u/WillPlaneI’m trying to find halloween parties in Waterloo for Oct 31st. I would prefer if they were free for girls before a certain time but i don’t mind paying. I just don’t want to spend an arm and a leg on tickets for dead parties.
I also would prefer a house party but I understand beggars can’t be choosers. I JUST NEED PARTIES! Lmk if you know of any and drop the links to tickets or instagrams or anywhere with more information.
submitted by /u/Still-Resort9826Has anyone taken CP363 (Database I) with Haytham Qushtom?
I have the midterm coming up and was wondering how difficult his exams usually are. Are the questions similar to the lecture slides and quizzes, or does he make them harder?
Also, how much of the exam is actual SQL/relational algebra questions vs. theory and multiple choice? Any tips on what to focus on would be really appreciated!
submitted by /u/Technical_Fig8105Im a first year trying to get onto the case team next year and was hoping I could get some guidance.
I got a 76 on the BU111 midterm, and predict my grade will probably be a mid 80.
I have a 96 in BU127, a ~90 in EC120, and a 90 in my elective.
I am on a lazsoc club and am participating in TCS and have already placed in finals in a couple of case competitions this year.
With my BU111, do I still have a chance?

submitted by /u/ReserveNo5080Hello! I’ll be starting PN at the Waterloo campus soon. Anyone who is in the program right now do you mind sharing your sem 1 timetable with me?
submitted by /u/AcceptableCelery3575I applied for the MSW through OUAC, and I want to apply to another program. I didn't apply to both of them at the same time because one isn't due until February, and I didn't want my references to go through the hassle of filling the forms out so early. The graduate toolkit says you have to make a new OUAC account, but I know having 2 OUAC accounts is not allowed? Has anyone else been through this before?
submitted by /u/No_Touch_5177Hi everyone!
Im actually very stressed right now and i can’t stop thinking about university 🤣
So my question is:
For those who applied to Laurier for the Winter intake, have you received an admission decision yet Or if you previously applied when did you guys apply, and how long did it take to hear back like the timeline !!
I just can’t find anything on reddit about this so i guess asking will help me and futur applicants if they want to know more about the process since winter intakes are quite rare ❤️
submitted by /u/Illustrious-Yam-2580I was just wondering if anyone here has the textbook "Learning Canadian Criminal Procedute, 15th Edition" or knows where to find it used/cheaper than the $266 the publisher is charging
submitted by /u/plasticonsumerHello???? Where’s my mark? 😭😭
submitted by /u/Exciting-Thing7467I’m in patho right now in sem 2 of practical nursing at Conestoga college and how are we studying for this class?? I barely passed my first exam and just failed my second and now I’m stressed about failing the class. I feel like it’s more of an application question problem cause chat thinks I’m a genius with the marks I’m getting on his practice exams. Any tips would be so appreciated!!
