and the No. 1 responses to each question showed that most Canadians, unlike many of their counterparts to the south, are progressive thinkers.

Which isn't half bad for an American who has never visited Canada. (Or so I tell myself, to cover my embarassment).

6. You beat me...8 out of 20 |

another American who's never been to Canada.
There were about 3 questions where I'm pretty sure that what I picked was the 2nd answer, I just didn't know which would be 1st and which 2nd.

I got 10 out of 20 as well, and I'm only an almost Canadian (Minnesota). I guess reading this forum has taught me alot.

10. Wow, Alberta has fish in a non-frozen, non-battered variety? |
|
Who knew?
On second thought, it said "fishing", not "catching fish".

I figured Albertans fishing was kind of like Saskatchewan ... ians? hunting seals. They struck me as the "sleeping" type.
So I got 14 because I didn't know dumb shit like that heartbreak capital thing, and because most people *should be* more worried about high blood pressure (or diabetes) than cancer. Oh, and I forgot to notice Atlantic Canada (the obvious answer) on that constitutional monarchy supporting list (sorry, Atlantic Canada), so I picked Ontario. And I said apples over yoghurt (is that really how it's spelled in English? I always seem to spell it French) -- everybody agrees it's healthful, nobody eats it? Oh yeah, and I thought most people would want to garden with Martha Stewart, like the question was really about gardening; and who the hell is Kathy Renwald??
Got all the *real* questions right. But why are people so worried about "identity theft"? Good grief.
