Read onlineThe only official study guide for the citizenship test is Discover Canada: The Rights and Responsibilities of Citizenship, available from Citizenship and Immigration Canada at no cost. If you have applied for citizenship and are preparing for the citizenship test, your primary resource should be the official study guide. If you use any other material to prepare for the citizenship test, you do so at your own risk.
You must study the copy of Discover Canada provided to you by Citizenship and Immigration Canada. If you do not have this copy, or have a copy of Discover Canada issued before 2011, you can view or download it here.
