Joy Dirks built this sample for her students in Surrey and across Canada.

Every question here follows the free Discover Canada guide, the only book the official test uses.

How this sample test works
Each attempt gives you 20 questions drawn at random from the course mock pool of 95 questions. The questions cover every part of the guide, from history and regions to government and symbols, in the same style as the practice sets and quizzes in the course Joy teaches. Pick an answer and you will see at once whether you were right, along with a short note that helps the fact stick.
