The Maple Leaf Edition. The ultimate Canadian edition of Monopoly. While gameplay is the same as in 'classic' monopoly, this edition features numerous unique changes, including:
- The box is the Canadian flag motif.
- All properties are Canadian replacing the equivalent 'standard Monopoly' properties (a booklet is included describing the actual streets, railroads and utilities used on the board).
- The insert is formed plastic to hold the money (standard) and slots for the properties to be displayed upright and two troughs for the houses and hotels.
- An embossed gold maple leaf enhances the center of the board.
- The Chance, Community Chest and Properties are non-standard sized and bi-lingual.
- The board replaces the cop with a RCMP Mountie on the Go To Jail (Allez au Houscou) corner.
- all railway spaces show the front of a Canadian train rather than the black Parker locomotive
- The 10 metal playing pieces include 9 original to 'classic' version, and a new beaver token (of course!).
For the 2000 2nd edition, all the pewter playing tokens were replaced with 8 true Canadian versions, including: Moose, Ski Plane, Bear, Hockey Player, Winter Boot, Sled, Canoe and Train. Other changes:
- The banknotes design is different: In the centre is a maple leave and to it's left and right is a space showing the name of the sponsor Royal Bank.
-Community chest and chance are replaced with bilingual 'Provincial' cards (red) and 'Federal' cards (yellow), both showing the same skyline picture as the box lid. They all show funny drawings with Mr. Monopoly (as Rich Uncle Pennybags will be called from 2000 onwards).
The text on some of these cards have been adapted to uniquely Canadian situations.
For the 2010 'Electronic Banking' edition of the game, an online contest was conducted in which participants were asked to vote for cities to be on the new board. Unlike the earlier editions, properties were arranged in their final vote order, and are not in any specific geographic arrangement.
