Should immigrants be required to pass a citizenship test to demonstrate a basic understanding of our country’s language, history, and government?

that is a stupid question what are you going to do deport a citizen if they fail the test

Yes and it should be taught more adamantly in schools

Yes, but it should also ask questions which would speak about the individual and their perspectives, if they will be a functioning citizen, etc.

Citizenship tests should include questions on values, stances and beliefs of people which could prove detrimental to the interests of Canada in the long run.

No, but offer educating for immigrants for the language, history and government arent very important.

All Canadian citizens should be required once every 10-20 years to conduct a citizenship test as many of our own citizens are completely unaware about important things in our country.

Yes, but it should be on the safety requirements of our country, and if they don't pass on the other things, offer them help in the form of a guide to get them used to the country.

Yes, but it should also cover topics about morals and values

Yes, but only if the federal government provides funding for education for them to pass.

Yes, and Canadian born citizens should have to pass it too before being granted the right to vote.

Yes, only if they plan to vote since this means they have an understanding of our government and want to contribute. If they only plan to live here for a short period of time (not hoping to become a citizen), this is not necessary.

Yes, but only with minimal questions, and things that would be needed in everyday life.

No, not a test, but they should be educated on language and government and basic Charter things

Yes, and it should test more than just a basic level of understanding. And I personally feel they should by into fully being a Canadian while not expecting Canada to change laws to accommodate their ways from previous country of citizenship.
As a Canadian, I welcome anyone. But don’t like sometimes being uncomfortable in the country where I was born and raised.

Yes, and must be completed within 10 years. The test should also be reflective of the age of the person taking the test

Yes, but the test should come 1 year after living in Canad to prove that they are a contributing member of society.

Yes; language, government, driving/traffic law, social/societal norms, and basic responsibilities of citizenship - each province or district can have an amendment to the federal test

Yes, but should also be in their home language (English with their language under it) this would help with comprehension.

easy to be manipulated

Only language testing, and no barring entry if they fail as long as they're willing to participate in a government funded language training program

It's important new Canadian citizens have at least an elementary school knowledge on Canadian history and government.

A rigorous test outlining the freedoms and secularization of the state, history, traditions, and customs of Canada.

It is essential for every immigrant to qualify, the government's required criteria for getting citizenship. As in recent years conflict around the globe has brought diverse refugee and their traditions. To keep law and order in the country to prevent future conflicts.

Immigrants should not be a thing

If they are planning on staying a while

Yes, only if they are applying for citizenship.

yes, but it should be a test with insightfull questions that any citizen could answer

language, manners, ethics, and intelligence

Yes, but take out the historical component. Language, laws, culture, done.

Only for language.

No, just the basics like who the prime minister is and the basic laws.

I think the current test should be modified. Anyone can pass it with little studying.

It should be adjusted to the level that the average citizen could pass as well.

Yes but not the current test, it should be easier, a test that normal canadien citizens actually know

Immigrants should be provided with the tools required to succeed rather than a test

Yes 100000 %

Yes, and for citizens too

Yes, but minimal understanding of language and basic laws only.

They should show and interest in the change between there country and Canada, not try to change Canada to be like the fourth the moved from

no, ban all immigrants

Should only be for language and government, history should not be included (should also be required for the citizens themselves.)

they should be fluent in english - and except all laws that may impede on their old ways.. there’s a reason you left your country keep you ideals there

It should be revised to reflect today, and should be given to all not just immigrants

Eventually not right away

Yes include basic laws

Just a test to show they understand our government and laws.

I think immigrants should be required to pass a citizenship test but before that happens I think it should be on citizens to answer the questions, so we know that citizens could do it. We don’t want to give immigrants a citizenship test that people living in Canada can’t answer.

Yes and adopt to our way of life

Yes. Basic unless they are applying for citizenship. But must include at least basic First Nations issues and history.
