Talk:Maple leaf

message: :Putting a Maple Leaf in the logo signifies that it is a Canadian product to Canadians. It's to show Canadian pride and that the chain are as Canadian run as possible. This is like Americans putting "Made in America" right below the product name in big bold letters. It's so that people understand that the product is home grown (or whatever). It comes from peoples' dislike of other people coming in to their country and telling them what to do and how to do it. This is especially true for Canada, as a significant number of Americans view Canada as "America Jr.", and Canadians don't want them trying to impose their view and such on them. And other countries' companies used cultural icons in their logos and ads all the time. How many products in the States incorporate stars and/or strips into logos and ads? The companies that don't do this kind of thing are the one that want to create their own icon (like McDonald's Golden Arches) so that they can go international and not be significantly identified with one country so that they can spread to others.u can ifb the stars shine abmsndbsbd hyshd shwjhsjws d See internationalism.

thread_title: Maple Leaf in Logos

message: According to one particular interpretation, the Maple leaf could be depicting the Holy Trinity, i.e. God as is usually understood in Christianity. See for instance the Andrei Rublev painting, which in depicted in the same shape as the maple leaf. There are various traditional symbols such as the fleurs-de-lis, the shamrock and the Christmas tree that have the same basic shape and that have historically been used to represent the Holy Trinity in art and symbol.

message: What's going on with the picture here? 'Leaves with myriad shapes, including some maples' isn't a great way to show people what a maple leaf looks like, especially not as the first thing you see in the article. geeoharee (talk) 16:57, 3 March 2013 (UTC)

replies: text: I'm not an expert on the Canadian maple leaf emblem, but I came across this article that points out that in some cases, for instance on the 2002 $5 Coloured Silver Maple Leaf coin (which can currently be seen here), the maple leaf is rendered using the Norway maple (Acer platanoides), an invasive species not native to Canada. But the Canadian Silver Maple Leaf coin seems to show a sugar maple (Acer saccharum) leaf. — Eru·tuon 18:38, 30 October 2019 (UTC)
