Does the citizenship test also ask for names of current politicians?

Hi there,

During the citizenship test, will they also ask for the names and party affiliations of current politicians (from anywhere in Canada)?

I have read the official Canada Study Guide (which is unfortunately quite outdated by now) and I'm currently using https://www.yourlibrary.ca/citizenship-test-questions/ to practice and many questions there are similar to the ones below (and of course none of this would be mentioned in the official study guide). And as I e.g. do not live in Richmond, BC, I wouldn't know the names e.g. three of their city councillors or similar as asked for below:

Name the members of Parliament for Richmond, British Columbia and the parties they belong to (Richmond Centre, Steveston-Richmond East respectively).
  • Alice Wong (Conservative), Kenny Chiu (Conservative)
  • Joe Peschisolido (Liberal), Kerry-Lynne Findlay (Conservative)
  • John Cummings (Conservative), Christie Clark (Liberal)
  • Greg Halsey-Brandt (Liberal), Geoff Plant (Liberal)

Name three city councillors for Richmond, British Columbia.
  • Malcolm Brodie, Derek Dang and Ernie Novakowski
  • Lyn Greenhill, Kiichi Kumagai and Lily von Hendron
  • Harold Steves, Chak Au and Carol Day
  • Ken Johnston, Bill McNulty and Lee Bailey

What is the name of the leader of the Opposition in British Columbia?
  • Adam Olsen
  • Shirley Bond
  • John Horgan
  • Andrew Wilkinson

What is the name of the Mayor of Richmond, British Columbia?
  • Mayor Richard Lee
  • Mayor Bill McNulty
  • Mayor Linda McPhail
  • Mayor Malcolm Brodie

Thank you for any tips!
