Given the large number of Canucks on this forum, I thought I would see how you all did with some down-home trivia.
My first go, I think I got 4.
Bonne Chance!!

I scored 8. It's okay, but I still wanted to choose "Rush" as the answer to some question.

surprisingly I got 6...
usually on that July 1st trivia quiz that they've been putting in the newspaper every year, I usually get like 20% and end up asking if I actually am a Canadian... |

I got 7 right, but the questions that I got wrong were all about EASTERN Canada. I'm from Northern BC. Not nearly enough questions about Oolichan fishing in that quiz. (I did get the Greenpeace question right!) |

I got 3 right. Not bad considering I have never been within 1000 miles of Canada. |

What a disturbing quiz.
I got 7/10, but they were all "educated guesses". It also seems that I got different questions than the rest of you based on your posts. |

I got 6 out of 10. Not bad, considering that I don't remember the '60s, pay attention to golf, I think they cheated with the confederation question, etc. |

I got a 0!
I just wanted the goalie to get beaten severly. Is that morally ok?
I think he now has a concusion, teeth missing and no knees

I'm from upstate New York. Does that count as a neighbor. I mean, I've ice fished, I liked John Candy, and was it SCTV? Here in China, we have CCTV, whcih is about the same.
I grew up all my life believing Rush was Canadian. WHat gives? I average almost 6. Should I be proud Or embarrased
I knew Poutine was something you could eat. I guess pigeons were to, though I don't believe they became extinct in Canada. Were they the last county to have them? |
