Former Tauranga Boys' College student Jarrad Hoeata has also made the squad.
"Many of our players have displayed outstanding form in the Mitre 10 Cup, and this tour gives them a great opportunity to step up another level again," McMillan said.
"We're really proud that the likes of Damian McKenzie, Rieko Ioane, Nehe Milner-Skudder and Kane Hames have all earned time in the All Blacks environment - as it shows the strength of Maori talent in New Zealand. But we now also have an opportunity to uncover other emerging Maori talent for the black jersey.
"We are fortunate to have Ash Dixon return as captain. He is the heart of our pack and his leadership, both on and off the field, steers the team's special character."
Having coached Bay of Plenty to a Mitre 10 Cup Championship finals berth, and the New Zealand Provincial Barbarians against the British & Irish Lions earlier this year, McMillan is embarking on his first campaign with the Maori team in a new chapter for the tea, and for himself.
"This short tour is a great opportunity to take the Maori All Blacks to new audiences. It's only the second time we have played Canada and it will be our first visit to Vancouver.
"Our match against the French Barbarians opens what will be a special weekend of rugby in France, as we play in Bordeaux on the eve of the All Blacks Test match against France in Paris.
"I'm very proud to be part of this team, and I am excited about what the next few weeks will bring," he said.
The Maori All Blacks assemble in Auckland this week ahead of travel on Sunday. Players involved in Mitre 10 Cup finals will join the squad after those matches.
