The actual Canadian citizenship test lasts for 30 minutes and consists of 20 multiple choice questions.
Applicants for citizenship must answer at least 15 questions correctly in order to pass the test.
According to the government of Canada, 20% to 30% of applicants fail the test.

why would you have to pass any test to be able to go and live where you want to?we're all born on this planet and no artificial red line drawn on a map should be able to stop us where to go

You can visit or even live in Canada without passing a test, but if you want the nation to bestow its citizenship on you, you will have to pass the test in order to prove that you are not ignorant about the structure of the country.

Zeb you crazy bitch, stay on topic!! HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH

I got 3/5 on the first link, the ones I got wrong were questions on who and how (I didn't know the Governor general and I didn't know how to contact a member of parliament. the second link I tanked because the questions dealt with technicalities of the government. ( I don't know how senators are chosen or that the Queen's representative in the Territories is called the Commissioner - well, now I do).

Interesting though.
