Quiz

My couple of efforts at a quiz were ok, but not nearly as sophisticated as YP's.

This quiz is simple and without hints, eh.

Canada doesn't have counties like England, nor states like many counties have, including my country, Australia. Canada has provinces, I expect related back to its strong French connection, eh.

So please name Canada's provinces. There are ten. I knew six of them without checking, and then it was a matter of, how did I forget that, eh. 

If you knew one of the less known ones, or all of them, speak up. Naturally Canadian and US citizens will know them all, eh.

If you don't know, Canada is in the process of ditching its formerly strong connection with the US, and building trade relationships all over the rest of the world. Canadians have stopped visiting the US in large numbers. This is all down to #47 the US Republican Party that's treated the country in the most appalling manner. Guard the Leaf, if you care to.

  1. Thanks for sharing this about Canada, Andrew! I am wondering if you got Quebec in the 6 provinces that you guessed. :) Quebec is the largest province in Canada, in area. I am so happy to have been born here...in Montreal, and have lived here all my life. Lots to see and do.

  2. I know Canada has Provinces instead of states, but cannot name a single one without first asking Google. So they are breaking connections with the US? Yay! Go Canada!

  3. Andrew, I would have a hard enough time naming all 50 states, and I LIVE here. However. if the test were either multiple choice or true or false, I'm sure I would get all of Canada's provinces right (as well as all the U.S. states.)

  4. Sorry I don't do quizzes but welcome the fact that Canada is striding out from under the USA hegemony.

  6. I had 8 of the provinces and 2 of the territories. I have visited three of the provinces, I need to spend more time in the maritimes - the two I missed are along the Atlantic coast.
