Canada 150 Quiz
Guess the icons in our fun test of Canadiana.
As Canada 150 comes to a close, we here at the University of Alberta would like to wish you all a happy 2018. For a little bit of fun, we’ve created a graphic featuring 72 (get it?) different pieces of Canadiana. Can you identify all the icons of the Great White North in this image? Test your knowledge and find out whether you’re a Crazy Canuck, or just another Hoser.
