About the event
CIRA, the not-for-profit that runs Canada's .CA domain registry, brings its Canadians Connected event series to Kitchener-Waterloo on Thursday, November 12, 2026, at Catalyst Commons in downtown Kitchener.
The evening is built around a fireside chat on becoming your family's Home CTO. Experts who work on Canada's internet give practical advice on online privacy, scams, home devices and cybersecurity threats.
Around the talk there is networking with cocktails, mocktails and light bites, and a pop-up market of local .CA businesses: Alexander Henry Coffee, Black Candle Print Co., Blowing Smoke Hot Sauce, Elle Makes, Just Simply XO, LivLush, Made of Honour Co., Malty & Hoppy Delicacy, nat's savon co, Nectar Reserve, Paper Marché, Rare Olive, Rollke, SBK Decor and Studio Syd.
It starts at 6 p.m. and runs to 9 p.m. in Glasgow Hall at Catalyst Commons, 137 Glasgow St., Kitchener. It is free, parking included, and open to everyone, but you must register first. You do not need to be a CIRA member. A photographer will be there, and CIRA may use the photos.
