Americans Attempt To Answer Basic Questions About Canada And Fail

Watch These Americans Fail At Answering Basic Questions About Canada

Our friends down south may export their great talent and an array of questionable food items to the world, but for some reason, they don't know who our president is. Yes, we said president.

In the video above, brave staff at Buzzfeed try to answer basic questions about Canada from the name of our president (this was a trick question) to the capital of our country. And not surprisingly, most were unsuccessful with their attempts.

Hey, maybe guessing Canada's population may be tricky even for some Canadians, but we're also highly concerned most people couldn't name a Canadian celebrity besides Ryan Gosling — we have plenty of talent up here, people!

And fellow Canucks, before you get all cocky and dismiss the video altogether, we challenge you to take this Canadian Citizenship exam .. and get 5/5.

But in the meantime, let's take a moment, for our flag and all, to laugh at some of these answers above.
