On that note, if anyone would like to help out with compiling trivia from Canadian sources, feel free to pick a theme and put together some questions. A theme would be facts about a specific province, or things like "canadian rock music", or "canadian inventions", or "canadian military history".
So far I've got Nova Scotia pretty much covered and all of the provincial things like official birds, mottos, capitals, trees, etc. The more questions the better!!

If anyone is interested, besides Provincial trivia, I'd like to collect questions from a variety of categories, so feel free to pick one out and do a little research - the questions should be phrased in a manner that can be easily answered in a few words, so keep that in mind.
topics include things like Canadian....
sports history
hockey greats
military facts
military history
prime ministers
towns with weird names
"world's largest" landmarks
famous quotes
inventions
actors
authors
rock music
movie quotes
food
slang
and thats just off the top of my head.
The more people we can get working on this, the better the list will be. I've put a few hours into it so far over the past few days and I only have about 180 questions so far, which is definately not enough, so any help is greatly appreciated.

I'll do landmarks...that should be fun!
Brenda @ Mon Jun 25, 2007 1:11 pm
I'll get the towns names (tomorrow, k? 
)
Edit: Yeah, I'm not
I will pick something else
Brenda @ Mon Jun 25, 2007 1:14 pm
I hope you are doing some editing on the questions and answers?
I mean, typo's and long answers...
Blue_Nose @ Mon Jun 25, 2007 1:20 pm
Yeah, I have to put them all in the correct format so the program can read them properly, so I do any changes I think necessary then.
Findng the questions is the tricky part, though.
