The Canadian citizenship test covers questions in various categories. Therefore, I've broken down this quiz into 6 sections. Each section consists of 5 questions on that specific category. The sections covered are as follows:

- Canada's History;
- Aboriginal Peoples of Canada;
- Canada's Geography;
- Government of Canada;
- Citizenship Rights & Responsibilities;
- Canada's Economy, Languages & Symbols.

Complete each practice test and move on to the next. At the end of each quiz, you will get your score and a review of your right and wrong answers.

If you're not yet ready to take the quiz and would like to prepare before you take it, read the DISCOVER CANADA guide.
