Toughest Canada Day Quiz ever
 
This one humbled me--only 70%.

You did better than me, I only 65%. But I protest that the quiz was too weighted with central Canada questions. ;)

70% for me, too.

Man, that is hard.
Though I maintain that not knowing the inventor of toilet paper or the # of fat grams in doughnuts aren't indicators of "Canadian content".
But is Sainte-Flanelle really a nickname for the Habs?

50%, most of which were WAG'g. I was expecting worse since I don't listen to the CBC, nor have I, my wife or any of my children ever been to Niagara Falls.

I don't think that assessing knowledge of Canada involves knowing which comediam sent something to an American decades ago.

Which is one question before I hit the close button.

Did it ever get to asking which Sex in the City Character is Canadian?

I got 70% also. I missed the athlete question as well as the actress one (BAK - it wasn't a SITC question, and although Kim Cattrell was one of the possible answers, it was the incorrect one. :))

I do have to give credit to Wil Ferguson - without his Canadian History for Dummies, I would have failed miserably...
