I cannot say what the questions were--the warnings about not posting such info on social media seemed aimed directly at me--but the intra-family comparisons indicated that I got the harder questions. Maybe, maybe not. But I got all the questions right and so did Mrs. Spew. College Spew did fine, but did not study nearly as much. I didn't mind the studying since I learned some stuff that I didn't know. It was also fun to come up with ways to remember things like:
- the Northwest Territories are not the most Northwest--that would be Yukon.
- Yellowknife is the capital of NWT because there is no Y in Northwest, and Whitehorse is the capital of Yukon Territory because there is no Y in Whitehorse.
- the question that gave me the most concern was one about ... hockey. Really. I had not really read the guide carefully with regard to hockey since I was cocky about my hockey knowledge.
After the test, we had to wait to get our results from the interviewer. I thought the interviewer was going to test our ability to speak in one of the two official languages, but he was more concerned about my work--that I had proof of my job. Which was not part of the documents I was required to send last fall nor listed as among the docs I needed today. I guess I could have got online on my phone to get to my salary stubs. Other than that, I just had to sign a form saying that I am not a war criminal or any other kind of evil-doer. Well, indicated/convicted evil-doer.

Anyhow, time to celebrate our near-Canadian-ness! Woot, eh!
