Important Questions on Canada
 

My wife sent me the following, alledgedly a list of questions asked by visitors to a Canadian Tourism website a couple of years ago, along with some light-hearted answers. Unknown at present whether these answers were the ones given by the un-named Tourism website, and unknown if the questions are even true.
