    Today I have decided to put my very limited knowledge of all things Canadian to the test, literally. I recently found this 30 question online quiz that I thought would be very fun. interesting, and most importantly embarrassing for me to react to. I am not exactly sure what this quiz on Canada will cover, but I am really hoping that my recent dive in Canadian RUclips will help me. If you enjoyed the video feel free to leave a comment, like, or subscribe for more!

    Terry Fox is the greatest athlete to ever live. After losing his leg to cancer, he set off to raise awareness for cancer by running across Canada. He ran an average of 26 miles per day for 143 days, covering 5300km, on one leg, in harsh weather. In Thunder Bay he discovered the cancer had returned in his lungs forcing him to stop his run. He passed away soon after, just days before his 23 birthday. The Terry Fox run is now the worlds largest one day cancer fundraiser and has raised over 850 million dollars in his name.

    As the most humble American I've ever seen, I commend you for even trying to learn about your northern cousins! You did better than most would have I'm sure. (ie) first American I met in Florida, asked me if I lived in an igloo! I actually had so much fun doing that test along with you and got 2 wrong myself. And I agree, that last question was naughty of the quiz masters! The other one I got wrong (second choice), was Chinese being the 2nd most common language spoken. I have to admit, that I might struggle naming, on a map, all 50 States at this point. I suggest you do a little Canadian geography (4th-5th grade stuff here) It's actually easier than yours!

      French is mandatory in BC and Ontario schools, as well as in Ontario Quebec and the 4 Maritime Provinces. PEI has 2nd language requirement which generally means French due to teacher availability. Naturally, Albertans not interested, nor is their neighbour Saskatchewan. French though is provided as an elective in those provinces. My kids in BC had mandatory French from grade 4 through to Grade 11. Yes yes it may have changed since 1970s to 1990s when my kids attended. In 1960s it was mandatory grade 8 to grade 11 but in grade 12 you could choose German (I was in a small country high school) if you wanted. Times change. I’m happy 2 of my grandkids are completely bilingual in English French and attend a French Immersion school thanks to their parents paving way for Federal Government occupations as an option. I mean why not.
      I live in a French community where French lumberjacks first settled in BC - called Maillardville and has quite a few French inspired buildings and apartments. I quite like it and besides who wouldn’t want to travel with ease in Paris or Nomandy or the French Riviera. It’s a wonderful country!

      Pierre Trudeau also alleviated the housing crisis of the 1970s by creating MURB that saw the building of over 197,000 low income affordable housing units across Canada. But then when conservatives took power, they defunded the program and cut funds to low income housing, at the time deinstitutionalization was also occurring which resulted in massive homelessness.

The Yukon has ten official languages: English, French, Gwich’in, Hän, Tanana, Southern Tutchone, Northern Tutchone, Tagish, Tlingit and Kaska.

    The reason why we have so many Chinese speakers here in Canada is kind of dark. In the 18th century Canada wanted to build a railway across the country. However it was a very tiring, dirty and dangerous job that not a lot of Canadiens at the time were looking for. Hence the chinese come into play.
    We encouraged Chinese men to come to Canada to work on the railway and were promised to be paid a lot more money then in China at the time which could support their families. Many of the Chinese families ended up staying/immigrating to Canada. However in the wake of this many Chinese workers would end up losing their lives due to the dangerous nature of the job. Many who were not so lucky were forced to stay here in Canada along with the families who chose to stay here.

    Just so you know, Pierre Trudeau was, as you suggested, Justin's dad. He was also Prime Minister from 1968-1984 except for a six-month stint in 1979 where the opposition PC (Progressive Conservative) party was temporarily in power under Joe Clarke. Gretsky was never a Canadian politician although if he ran, especially in his hometown, he almost certainly would have won. Hockey is our national religion up here.
    And English and French are both Official Languages. Although that applies nationally, it's specific to services provided by the federal government. It basically means you can get service from the federal government agencies in English or French. Many provinces have also chosen to offer their services in English and French, such as Ontario and New Brunswick. Interestingly enough, when we updated our Canadian constitution in 1982, along with the federal government, New Brunswick also added English and French as official languages, so they're considered Charter rights now.

    It's great that Tyler wants to learn about Canada. 22:10 Victoria is the capital of British Columbia and is located in Canada's only Mediterranean climate (the warm summer variety,) it sees a February average of 8.6C (that's roughly 46-48F when all rounding is accounted for) and there is even a commercial olive farm on nearby Salt Spring Island. On average, the BC coast enjoys some of the mildest winters in the country since the temperatures are moderated by the Pacific Ocean and the mountains block a lot of Arctic air (interior regions can be a lot colder and snowier but get progressively milder further south.) While the coast generally sees lower snowfall, it gets a lot of winter rain (it's not called a *rainforest* for nothing.) The west coast is also the *only* part of Canada that can grow cold-hardy palms *without* winter protection as the plant hardiness zones range between *8a & 9b* (the highest in Canada) by the water. To give you an idea about the moderating effect of the ocean (and just how *vast* Canada is) I’m going to compare Prince Rupert, BC (which is just south of *Alaska)* to four other Canadian cities. Prince Rupert averages 6C (43F) in February compared to -8C (18F) in St. Anthony, NL (a coastal town which sits at roughly the same latitude) 1C (34F) in Kingsville, ON (the southernmost incorporated town in Canada) and 0C (32F) in both Halifax & Toronto (which are generally ranked as two of the mildest major cities in winter outside of BC.)

      Next door to me is a condo complex with palm trees out front. There are also some palm trees in the west end by the beach park. So we grow palm trees in Vancouver too.

      @@mckessa17 Everybody is everywhere. Katie Porter questioned a CEO recently on this. All the corporados realized they can raise prices and blame the pandemic. She compared a very telling salary compensation from the 1800s to today. Wages are about 1/10 of the cost compared then and now, and profit have skyrocketed. The CEO agreed with her. Corporations are the new Pharaohs.

    Well done. I have met or talked to many from the USA. Sadly some had little to no knowledge about Canada. You should be proud.
