As you may know I and my son Franklin love Canadian coins. So today I was looking a the genius part of the Apple app store and it thought I might like the Canada Quiz. see -https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/canada-quiz-test-you-knowledge/id499564204?mt=8. After taking my 2nd quiz look like I am stuck in the USA. Could some Canadian take this quiz and see how well you do.

Thanks Joe

I only got this one right because I knew the dates for both the CW and Canadian federation. Wasn't aware of the fact behind the question.
