A Cambridge man is facing multiple charges related to child sexual abuse and exploitation material.

The Waterloo Regional Police Service said they launched an investigation into a Kitchener resident after they received a tip from the National Child Exploitation Coordination Centre in September 2025.

As part of the investigation, they charged a 29-year-old Cambridge man on Wednesday. He has been charged with one count of possession of child sexual abuse and exploitation material and two counts of making child sexual abuse and exploitation material available.

Charges regarding child sexual abuse and exploitation material formerly used the term “child pornography.”
