Canadian Citizenship Practice Test 2025

Question: 1 / 1030

What architectural styles are the Parliament buildings modeled after?

Modern and Contemporary

French, English, Aboriginal traditions, and Gothic Revival

The Parliament buildings are not modeled after Modern and Contemporary styles because they were built in the 19th century, which predated these styles.

They are also not modeled after Roman and Greek styles as these buildings were not built in the classical style with columns and pediments.

Victorian and Edwardian styles were popular during the time these buildings were constructed, but they do not fully encompass the architectural details and influences seen in the Parliament buildings.

This leaves option B, which accurately lists the various styles that influenced the design of the Parliament buildings, such as the Gothic Revival style popular in Victorian England, as well as elements of French, English, and Indigenous traditions. These influences can be seen in the buildings' unique blend of pointed arches, spires, and decorative elements incorporating symbols from these cultures.
