No. This is a stupid question. What happens if they are born in Canada and they fail? We shoot them on the spot? Stupid.
@5C58T5P4yrs4Y
that is a stupid question what are you going to do deport a citizen if they fail the test
@5HX93R24yrs4Y
Yes and it should be taught more adamantly in schools
@9M7GJYV1 day1D
Yes but it should have a strong emphasis on our colonial history and the experience of Indigenous bands.
@9L8JRVW1mo1MO
Yes, but it should also ask questions which would speak about the individual and their perspectives, if they will be a functioning citizen, etc.
@9L44YYD1mo1MO
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.
