You can exchange for a G2 and once you have 2 full year of experience, you can upgrade to G.

Refer https://www.ontario.ca/page/exchange-out-province-drivers-licence



Less than 2 years driving experience (with exchange)
You need to take:

  • an eye test, when you apply
  • one road test (the G2 road test)
You will not be able to do the G2 road test right away. You need to wait until you gain two, full years of driving experience. For example, if you had a licence for 21 months in your home province, state or country, you can do the G2 road test after 3 months in Ontario. After you pass the G2 road test, you get a full licence.

While you wait, you can drive with your G2 licence, under certain conditions.

Learning to drive: graduated licensing (G1 and G2)
 
I went to the road test center and they gave the G2 immediately. Apparently New York License is recognized, i just got it 9 months ago.
