Welcome back to the Maclean’s Quiz, a diversion designed to test your trivia skills. Good luck, and remember: no Internet assistance allowed.

We’ve also invited “Canada’s Smartest Person,” Peter Dyakowski, to take the quiz. Dyakowski is a lineman with the CFL’s Hamilton Ticats, and also bested the competition in CBC’s Canada’s Smartest Person contest in 2012.

This round, we tested him on everything from from Black Forest ham to Mary, Queen of Scots. He scored 87 per cent.
