Canadians’ hearts may be brimming with pride as Canada Day approaches, but a new poll suggests their minds aren’t full of the knowledge needed to pass a citizenship test.

As someone who has taken the test, it was much easier to do than the study material and sample tests led me to believe. I read through the citizenship guide so many times memorizing crazy facts that my Canadian friends couldn’t answer. The actual test was so basic that even logical guess work and basic knowledge would probably get you a pass.
Oh, and I couldn’t tell you a thing from my studies now. All went out of my head the moment after finishing.
I’m sure you’d still easily pass it. Just because you can’t recall specific stuff without a prompt doesn’t mean that you can’t when prompted. I just did the practice test on the Toronto public library site I found and it was ridiculously easy. So easy in fact that it’s mind boggling that so few people were able to pass.
