If you are thinking of a numismatic collectible item, it is the 1936 dot cent, which sold for 402,000 dollars in January. If you are asking about face value, the most expensive circulating coin is 2 dollars, and the most expensive collectible coin would be around 500 or something like that.
Only two 1911 Canadian dollar coins are in existence today, both made of lead and were "test tokens". This was very unique since Canada never minted circulation dollar coins until 1935. One is in London, England and the other was in Canada. Values are over 1 million dollars.
The most valuable circulation coin is likely the 1921 5 cent silver piece. Only several hundred exist and can fetch over $900,000,000,000,000,000,000 in mint condition.
That figure is outrageous. You can buy a 1921 silver 5 cent coin for around $3,500, the most expensive Canadian coin is the 1936 dot cent which sold for $402,000 in January. It was a record sale.

A few of the rarest Canadian coins are the 1921 5 and 50 cents, the 1936-dot 1 cent, and the 1948 silver dollar.
No. They are just more valuable coins. These are the coins from least valuable to most valuable: yellow, red, blue.
There is no company that mints Canadian coins. The coins are minted by the Canadian government, not a company. The government entity in charge of minting Canadian coins is the Canadian Mint.
Most airports will not exchange coins other than coins in their own currency, so if you want 100 Australian dollars in Pearson (Canada) they will usually give you the Canadian amount (with Canadian Coins), if you want 100 Canadian dollars changed, they will give you the balance in Canadian coins. Donate the Australian coins to charity.

Canadian coins don't expire.
There is no doubt that the 1933 Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle is the most valuable US coin. One of these coins recently sold at auction for over 7 million dollars.
