Canadian Trivia #9
Correct Answer: Liberal Alexander Mackenzie took over the job in 1873. Curiously, he was the only one of Canada's first 8 Prime Ministers who was not a "Sir". Wonder what he did wrong.

Point for Wink! You definitely know more about Canada than pygmies in the jungles of Borneo!

Canadian Trivia #10

An easy one to make up for that last one: "Canada" is derived from a native word meaning:

  • "Holy *&@$ it's cold!"
  • "Place we can't think of name for"
  • "Vast land with many Tim Hortons"
  • "village"

Toronto is a terrific city. If you're not French Montreal is a pain but it's beautiful.

Canadian Trivia #10
Correct Answer: According to those "Heritage Moments" spots, Canada got its name when a bunch of bad actors misunderstood the native word for "village".

Wink, I have been to Alberta and Vancouver Island. When we are in Bellignham, WA, we go to Vancouver quite a lot, just to get some big city fix.

I have been to Toronto a couple of times, I love it there. He says the people in Montreal he has met are very arrogant, if your not French-Canadian, you're nothing.
