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.

Clean in the summer, but in the winter the streets are covered with dirty salt and gravel in most parts of Canada.

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.

I noticed this too. Funny how there are so many Canadian hockey players they could've chosen but they went with an American, maybe they are trolling?

Oct 5, 2019
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...

It's gotta be a troll job right? Of the thousands of Canadian hockey players they just happened to pick an American?

If it's a troll, I kind of respect it.

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.)

About the xenophobia part it is low but I'd say at the same time that it is growing.

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.
