Canadian symbol (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

maple

'canadian symbol' is the definition.
(maple leaf)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for maple that I've seen before include "----- leaf: symbol of Canada" , "Hard light-coloured wood used for furniture" , "Tree with syrupy sap" , "Ample sort of tree" , "a lot of these in Canada" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sunday Times and The Times.
