The Truro Bearcats were a Junior "A" Hockey team based in Truro, Nova Scotia, that played out of the Metro Valley Junior Hockey League.

The Truro Bearcats were founded in 1967 as the Kentville Riteway Rangers along with the Metro Valley Junior Hockey League.
The Bearcats made the jump to the next level, but did not find success.
The Bearcat legacy lived on, and in 1997 the Maritime Junior "A" Hockey League awarded Truro with a new franchise, thus marking the return of junior hockey to Truro after a fourteen-year absence.
