For some reason when I run the simulation, the load is not acting on the cantilever. Can somebody point me in the right direction?

Try a pack 'n go on the part. Hopefully that will include the simulation and would allow us to look at what you're doing.

Your body has been set to rigid, which means it will not deform. A deformable body has the circled icon and gives the results like this:

To correct the problem, right click the body in the tree and select 'Make deformable':
