Highly recommend you to read the study guide as well, because we can't cover all the questions extracted from the content in the book.
The Canada Citizenship Test consists of:
20 multiple-choice and true-or-false questions
A time limit of 45 minutes
To pass, applicants need to score at least 15 out of 20 correct answers (75%).
The test may be taken in either English or French, and it assesses understanding of the Discover Canada guide, covering Canadian history, government, rights and responsibilities, geography, and cultural symbols. If a candidate does not pass, they may be invited for a second attempt or, in some cases, an interview with a citizenship officer.
