Most of Canada would fail immigration test
Canadians failed 65% of the time when asked questions from a test for immigrants. Canadians seems to be lacking common knowledge about their country. The Ipsos-Reid survey also called for a specil citizenship exam to be a requirement for all high school graduates.
Now, do you think that Canada should a) go back to school b) not care c)Issue a subpoena for the pollers to be sent to a secret terrorisim detention facilty or d) none of the above. I think sadly the answer will be B. I hope America can do better than this about knowing about their country!
Apparently, you think that Americans know more about their country but they do not. Saw an “on the street” survey once that was totally pathetic. People did not even know how who the Vice Pres. is or who their congressperson is. It’s really worse than that but I can’t remember the questions. :/
