Founded in 2000, the Canadian Druze Society of Ontario (CDS) is a dynamic cultural hub, proudly serving as one of the largest and most vibrant communities of its kind in Ontario. Our mission is to celebrate and promote Druze culture and heritage within the Canadian context. Through a rich array of programs—including traditional and contemporary cultural events, conventions, performances, film screenings, art exhibitions, and more—the CDS offers valuable experiences to thousands of members and hundreds of visitors each year.

Our heritage programming honors the sacrifices and achievements of the Canadian Druze community, while fostering a deeper understanding of the evolving Druze identity in Canada. These initiatives highlight the community’s enduring lessons of cultural acceptance and integration, which remain as vital today as ever.

The CDS is a registered charitable, not-for-profit organization, committed to enriching the cultural landscape and fostering unity within and beyond the Druze community.
