World Monopoly - Montreal / Boardwalk?

Question

Heard on the radio this morning that the highest priced square on "World Monopoly" would be Montreal, Canada... whereas Vancouver and Toronto end up in the orange and magenta. These are among other cities throughout the world like New York, London, Paris...

Just wonderin why does Canada have 3 cities on the board, and why is Montreal #1?

Answer 1

Cause the cities were ranked by how many votes they got. I was quite shocked too. Then again, my dad alone voted like 5 time for Montreal, and the fact that you could have voted was all over the news here, so there was no doubt that we had a lot of votes here in Montreal.
