This article presents a humorous commentary on a study of Canadians that showed 18 percent of the citizens do not know the name of the country's prime minister. Further, the survey found that only 58 percent of Canadians know the first two lines of the national anthem "O Canada" and only 38 percent can name all four political parties represented in the House of Commons.
