Notes:
The Speed River, a major tributary of the Grand, flows through Wellington County and the Region of Waterloo in southwestern Ontario. It flows south from its source near Orton, through Guelph, where it is joined by the Eramosa River, then through the towns of Hespeler and Preston, finally uniting with the Grand River in north-west Cambridge.

The Grand River (a Canadian Heritage River) is the largest river that is entirely within southern Ontario’s boundaries. From its source near Wareham, Ontario, it flows south 280 kms through Grand Valley, Fergus, Elora, Waterloo, Kitchener, Cambridge, Paris, Brantford, Caledonia, and Cayuga before emptying into the north shore of Lake Erie south of Dunnville at Port Maitland. wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand River
