Well I just finished writing my grueling citizenship exam. I waited a whole hour and a half to begin writing, and the test only took 3 minutes. Ugh, how efficient is that?

Frankly, I think the test is too easy. Canada needs to generate revenue? Just make the exam really hard, and each time you fail, there's an additional fee of $200 per re-test. That'll generate a lot of money from us immigrants. :) Hey, I should run for office, once I become a citizen. I mean, a one time fee of $200 bucks to process your citizenship application just isn't enough.

Incidently, there was one lady that got "kicked" out of the exam before it even began because she couldn't understand any English. I think that's crazy. Trust me, I've been to school with some born citizens who didn't know any English either.... except a lot of swear words. And frankly, what does speaking English/French have anything to do with becoming a citizen? There are many places where you can go, live your life freely and never need to use English/French. I KNOW for a fact at least in Chinatown, you could live there your whole life without more than "I caw cop on yu."

To be honest, I think the questions are stupid. Let's face it, how many Canadians can give you the dates of when each individual province joined the Confederation? Does it matter in the greater scheme of things? What about: What is the only official bilingual province in Canada? If you're jumping excitedly in the backrow, arm raised and go "Oh Oh", then name Quebec, please return your citizenship to the front desk. Don't let the beaver tail hit your butt on the way out.

Frankly, I think the questions should be as followed, in this sequence:

1) Do you have a job?
2) Do you pay taxes?
3) Is the biggest word in your vocabulary...."vocabulary"?
4) Do you think that the Frogs should have special rights above everyone else just because they clear their throats a lot and insist on going "we we" when they really mean "YES"?

If the sequence is Y, Y, N, N. Congratulations, welcome to Canada. Sing the song; say you love the Queen. Next.

....I mean, it's Canada for pete's sake, we don't even have an aircraft carrier or nothing in case of an invasion from the evil Americans. By the way, the only official bilingual province in Canada is New Brunswick, or was that Nova Scotia? I forgot already. Well I know it ain't Quebec!
