I read the discover Canada book, listen to the audio as I read. I used Richmond library quiz and i used the app on my phone called Canada Citizenship Test

Thanks a lot for guidance. One more question........Do the questions related to dates and the questions related to remembering individual names like "Donald Smith (Lord Strathcona), the Scottish-born director of the Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR), drove the last spike "..........Do we need ot remember name of Donald Smith etc...i..e who did what.....at various places in the bookletof "Discover Canada". Do questions like these appear in test. Any recalls from actual test ?? Thanks

Yes, you do need to remember names and the important dates. You don’t need to memorise every single date, but dates like 1867 for example are important to know.
