The Canadian Society of New York was founded in 1897 to foster a spirit of goodwill between Canada and the United States, and had over a century-long tradition in New York. The Society served as a platform for Canadian government, corporate and cultural leaders to interface with the New York community. A not-for-profit organization, the Canadian Society of New York organized cultural, social and business events including the Maple Leaf Ball (otherwise known as the Canadian Society of New York Ball). Friday, November 14, 2003 marked the Society's 106th annual (Maple Leaf Ball ) at Manhattan's Waldorf Astoria Hotel. This black-tie event honored two Canadians who devoted much of their careers to championing an ongoing partnership between Canada and the United States: Senator Jerry Grafstein, Q.C and Pamela Wallin, Canada's Consul General to New York. The Society also ran the Hockey Achievement Award Dinner. On January 1, 2005, the Canadian Society of New York merged with the Canadian Club of New York to become the Canadian Association of New York Incorporated.
