Q: WHat does the red Maple leaf symbol mean?

I've been reading the Answers forum for a while now, and although I understand what the thumb-up and thumb-down symbols mean, some posts also have a red maple leaf in the corner, with a number inside it.

 

What does that mean?

 

The forum search engine failed to enlighten me...

If you have a thumbs up and three thunbs down the maple leaf will read -2,,,,, 1 -3 = -2

Ahh, it's a math thing.

I always thought the maple leaf stood as a symbol of lesser quality and bad animation.

 

Oh...  You mean on the board.  Never mind, eh.  :)

I always thought it was the canadian flower thing and they just used it to show negative and positive. -1 would be considered red maple leaf. +1 would be considered green maple leaf.

At first I thought it was identifying Canadian members. The Red Maple Leaf being their symbol and flag of course. 

          It just seems to be a decorative icon. (or is it?) Maybe its saying "this post is TOO Canadian!".

If you get too many red maple leaves, Adminanswers sends some hockey players to your apartment to mess you up.

A:Your potential employer is right! Purpose of the Medical exam before granting Z visa is to make sure, you won't be entering China in any abnormal and harmful to others condition.Few days after your arrival to China, you'll be required to complete another ME ... If ME in China will be OK, you'll get a Residence permit stamp into your book some 10-days afterwards. Imagine, you're an employer, who can sponsor my entry and work in China, but after my arrival to China would be found I carry some sickness, which would prevent Chinese .gov to issue a Residence permit. Rule is: Z visa should be converted into Residence permit in 30-days after entry to China.    So, my advice is:"Complete ME in your home country and forward medical results to your employer".Z visa grant will follow shortly afterwards. Employer is not wrong at their demand for the pre-arrival ME from your home country hospital.   -- icnif77
