Mississauga Branch hosted the fifty-seventh Annual on 5 May 2007, where the completed revision of the Constitution was put to the membership. Hamilton won the Weston Trophy again; Paul Kitchener became a Fellow and made the belt-buckle award given in memory of Don MacLeod; and Jamie Zelikovitz of Ottawa brought dye samples from his supply company and demonstrated on the Saturday afternoon.
