I have this $1 Million Banknote. The pamphlet that comes with it states it is made by "BA Banknote".

Now my question is, is this the same company that prints REAL money? British American Banknote or BABN? I want to know for sure for accuracy's sake and to make adjustments if need be.

It also feels like a Bird Series note down to the touch as its intaglio printed.

I sold one of these notes for someone that worked there. The notes were close to the real thing until the RCMP put a stop to it.

Here is a website link discussing about the $1 million dollar notes and the variations, as well as the press release from the RCMP.

And yes, they were made by BA Banknote company.

So because this one has the real coat of arms, it's illegal? Are you sure this isn't an April Fool's post...

The key word there seems to be "may."

I just checked mine. I have the same on as the OP (serial number different) and the 1999 adult queen "million" back.
