I just want to express my love for Canada/Canadians. I went to Vancouver a couple of months ago and it is a lovely city. The people are also very nice, friendly and pleasant - not just those in customer service roles, the general public too! I highly recommend it to anyone. It was a positive stereotype I was slightly expecting (Canadians are nice/polite) but it was greater than I thought. I have only been to Vancouver but I presume the majority of Canadians all over Canada are similar...
^ You are absolutely right. I've been to Vancouver, Manitoba, Niagara Falls, Montreal, Toronto and Kingston. The people are extremely nice and helpful. And the streets are the cleanest I've ever seen in the Americas.
Well, I am tickled pink about having a Jet on the thumbnail picture! Weird that's it's Dustin Byfuglien (from Minnesota), but that's all right, because any American who plays hockey and likes ice fishing has to be pretty legit on a Canadian quiz.
You'd think they go with McDavid, who's Canadian and plays on Edmonton, or Scheiffle if they really wanted to choose Jets. Maybe they're trying to break the "only white people play hockey" stereotype, but Subban is an Ontario native so it still doesn't make a lot of sense...
Toronto is the only major city in Canada I've been to, and I thought it was awesome. Maybe I'd change my opinion if I traveled around the rest of Canada though.
Thanks for making the quiz. One correction: the Z clue is not right. Here's how 100% of Canadians spell Z: Z. Do you mean most common Canadian pronunciation? Because then the answer would be right :)
My parents took me on a fly-in fishing trip in Ontario when I was in high school back in the '60s. I've been in love with Canada ever since. (Even though they never put ice in the drinks in the restaurants unless we asked, which was unheard-of for this southern girl.)
100 percent easy as a born in Calgary, raised in Nova Scotia. i recently moved and it absolutely destroyed me. Canada is the best country i have ever been to (as a very well travelled teenager) and i really miss it. The people are so nice, the land is so nice and the life may not be lavish, but we were living. I grew up in a small town and i am so grateful i did. Dont get me worng, cities are great and rich countries like Norway (where i live now ) are great, but nothing beats a canadian small town childhood. If you know you know.
Great Quiz! As a half canadian half quebecois, i can say that on one hand, we’re really not that very nice due to having someone else try and enforce their language on them, and the other half is really not very nice due to having someone else try and enforce their language on them.
As a native-born Canadian, the child of immigrants, who has just recently moved back to Canada, I hate to say the answer to X is no longer applicable. With higher rates of immigration from Asia, you'll find a lot of xenophobia in Canada nowadays. It didn't used to be such a thing, but it is a big problem now. Immigrants face many challenges. Don't think that answer can still be there in good faith.
If it may be helpful, Canadians can now identify as gender "X" on their passport. That could be a question more relevant to Canada and its progressivism.
I just can never spell Nunavut correctly unless I am staring at the letters.
If it's a troll, I kind of respect it.
Would love to see the study that backs up that stat lol
I did have to guess on the "J" answer, but got it on my second attempt!
