We are now in the fourth year of reviewing the dramatic shorts category based on the recommendations submitted to the Ursa Majors along with random ones I may have seen during the year, or items that maybe the algorithms caught that only get recommended at this time of year for some reason. The choices here are, once again, polished and only one or two in the whole list had missing elements. Without you all curating your choices these lists would not happen so thank you for your efforts this year.

New to the format this year is that I’ll lean toward sectionalizing so that the text before the video doesn’t go too much into spoiler territory and any text afterwards will go more into elements I liked that address the content itself as to not spoil any desire to view without being painted by those thoughts.

They released the following statement

We have a very significant development with our host hotel to announce. Regrettably, we have recently been informed by the hotel that, due to the timing of renovations, they are unable to host CanFURence this year over the August holiday weekend (July 31st – August 2nd). This is a decision we believe was made in good faith by the Delta, and that they reached out to us as soon as they realized the conflicting dates. The hotel did also attempt to see if there was any availability in other hotels on our normal weekend, but currently there is not.

We are looking into alternative dates and/or locations to host CanFURence 2026, and are working with the hotel to see what can be arranged. But as of this moment, the dates for CanFURence 2026 will no longer be on July 31-Aug 2.

We apologize for this unforeseen event and will provide an update as soon as there are any significant developments.
