    Hi! Welcome to the sport and the forum; fencing is a great way to get/keep in shape, and though I don't know much about the scene in southern ontario, any club in the area would probably be happy to have you come check out what they've got, and I would be highly skeptical of any club that didn't let you do so.

    Also, check out the CFF's (Canadian Fencing Federation) website at www.fencing.ca.

    But those things which belong neither to God nor to Caeser, feeleth free to writeth them off, for yea, they are deductable.

    University of Waterloo Fencing Club, Waterloo (though you may have to be a student)
    Westdale Fencing Club, Hamilton

    These are probably closest to you. If you wanted to go further afield, there are several around the Toronto area and two in London.

    You can find them all at the Ontario Fencing Association website: http://www.fencing.on.ca/directory/

    Good luck!
