Skate Canada (Canadian French: Patinage Canada, lit. "Skating Canada") is the national governing body for figure skating in Canada, recognized by the International Skating Union and the Canadian Olympic Committee. It organizes the annual Canadian Figure Skating Championships, the fall Skate Canada International competition, other national and international skating competitions in Canada, and the Skate Canada Hall of Fame.
The organization was founded in 1887 as the Amateur Skating Association of Canada for speed and figure skating by Louis Rubenstein of Montreal's Victoria Skating Club. Later, in 1914, it was renamed name as The Figure Skating Department of Canada, remaining a section of the Amateur Skating Association of Canada. In 1939, it changed its name to the Canadian Figure Skating Association (CFSA), and dissociated from the Amateur Skating Association in 1947. The organization's current name, Skate Canada, was adopted in 2000 for consistency with the names of other national sports organizations in Canada.
Skate Canada claims to be "the oldest and largest figure skating organization in the world".[1] The vast majority of members are not elite competitors, but recreational skaters.
