Now is really the time to start voting to get Moose Jaw a place on a new Canada Monopoly game board.

    The friendly city has made it into the top 10 cities for a wild card vote.

    Sixty-five cities were originally nominated according to population size to sit on the other spots of the board and 20 of those have gone through.

    Moose Jaw is currently sitting in position six for the wild card slots but needs to be in the top two by Feb. 21 if it is to gain a place.

    Currently Banff and Niagara Falls are leading the way followed by Victoriaville, Kenora and Waterloo.

    The winners will occupy the low-rent property spaces that are traditionally Mediterranean Avenue and Baltic Avenue.

    People can currently vote for Moose Jaw at www.monopolyvote.ca.

    The competition has been launched by Hasbro, the producers of Monopoly.

    Marisa Pedatell, of marketing services for Hasbro, said: “Voting for the top 20 cities is now complete and starting Monday through to Feb. 21, you can vote for the wild card cities."
