According to http://www.worldflags101.com/c/canada-flag.aspx The 11 points on the maple leaf emblem have no significance. Many people believe they stand for Canada's provinces, plus the federal government, but the emblem is just a recreation of an actual maple leaf.

The maple leaf on our flag is considered to be a stylized version of the red maple. It was designed by Jacques Saint-Cyr.

The maple leaf on the Canadian flag represents the nature and environment of Canada. The maple leaf is actually a sugar maple leaf, which turns red in autumn/fall. The number of points on the leaf has no significance. The Canadians wanted to replace the British flag quickly when they became independent, so they came up with the (autumn) red maple leaf to represent the nature of Canada.
The Canadian flag right now is the 12th one.
A typical maple leaf has 3-5 lobes, with the most common being 3 or 5 lobes.
