Why a maple leaf?
Maple trees have always provided Canadians with valuable wood products like flooring, furniture, and interior wood dcor. Long before the arrival of the European settlers, Canada’s aboriginal peoples discovered the values of maple sap. At least one species of maple trees grows naturally in every province. Including a maple leaf on the nation’s flag in 1965 wasn’t the first widespread use of the maple leaf. Many historians believe it served as a Canadian symbol as early as the 1700s. Did you know that between 1876 and 1901 the maple leaf appeared on all Canadian coins? What is Canada’s national animal? It’s the beaver.
