Canada Day is coming up fast and we are getting ready to celebrate in true Canadian style—complete with beaver tails, road hockey, fireworks and a healthy appreciation for the letter “u.”
If family games night is on your list of activities for the long weekend, we suggest the oh-so-patriotic Monopoly Canada Edition. The classic board game has been given a Canadian twist and now features electronic banking, so you won’t have to worry about fiddling around with Monopoly money (though if you really miss those paper bills, you could finally put all that Canadian Tire money to good use). And the best part? From now until July 3rd, Hasbro Canada will contribute one board game for each game sold to the Starlight Children’s Foundation, an organization that aims to help sick children and their families cope with the challenges of serious illness through various forms of entertainment and family activities.
“We are pleased to be donating to the Starlight Children’s Foundation who are as committed as we are to making children smile,” said Greg Ferguson, senior brand manager of games and puzzles for Hasbro Canada, in a release. “These children have been through so much, we are honoured to help provide them with some much needed joy and fun.”
You can pick up the Monopoly Canada Edition at stores across Canada for $40.
