Only 16 per cent of participants pass quiz on prominent racialized, Indigenous Canadians

asked 1,000 respondents a series of 24 questions aimed at determining their knowledge on a range of issues.

Less than six per cent of respondents recognized figures such as Indigenous filmmakers and human rights activists, or the first RCMP officer to wear a turban. The survey presented participants with 24 statements about Canadian doctors, innovations or other notable figures and asked them to identify whether they were true or false.

Few knew that Chief Dan George was the first Indigenous actor to be nominated for an Academy Award, or that the first Indigenous doctor to head up a North American medical association was the Quebec-born Innu surgeon Stanley Vollant. The quiz also asked respondents to identify their degree of familiarity with a list of accomplished Canadians.

We used to name the 5 houses of indiginous we used to know what Mètis meant... WE USED TO TEACH KIDS IN SCHOOL NOT PROPOGATE GAY BLACK MUSLIM AGENDAS

16% of Canadians can’t pick out Canada on a map.

You’d get the same result if you asked about historic prime ministers. That’s not racism. It’s just the stupidity and ignorance of our population.

Who cares about your 10 paid participants. CTV IS HATE MEDIA

Why would any white person teach their kids about these people? If your white it doesn't matter how much you know, everything will still get blamed on whites

We had more American and European history than Canadian history in school because our books were recycled. We've always relied on other countries too much for everything from our food to our education.

Not saying one is better than the other, just Canadian need to brush up on history.

True that’s not great and it does highlight that Canadian need to brush up on indigenous history, but I think the same could be said about other Canadian history too. If there was a test of 24 PM’s I’d fail for sure.

Considering the Canadian curriculum used to teach American history and taking Canadian history specifically is optional, I’m not surprised

Even less Canadians understand that Progressives are engaging in Soviet designed Ideological subversion. I wonder why.

Pretty good considering how absolutely specific it is

CTV is gross. 16% is about the number I’d expect for all Canadian historical figures. Our education system has been horrible for a couple decades

'racialized' this word came out of nowhere all of a sudden every news outlet in Canada is saying it. So weird..
