Rick Mercer & Vancouver Mayor Sam Sullivan

[Sly]

For those of you not living in Canada, you may not know about a comedian named Rick Mercer, but you really should. He became really well known during his stint on "This Hour has 22 Minutes" and now has his own show "The Rick Mercer Report".

During the latest show, Mercer interviewed Vancouver May Sam Sullivan (as you'll recall, Mayor Sullivan, who is in a wheelchair, accepted the Olympic flag at the Turin Olympics and became somewhat of a media darling at the Closing Ceremonies). The interview is too funny and Mayor Sullivan was definitely able to keep up with Mercer's wit. (The same could not be said for Mercer who didn't appear too keen on hiking with the Mayor, as you'll see.)

"The Rick Mercer Report". Click on the link under Top 5 Videos and then on the picture of Rick Mercer and Sam Sullivan to watch the video (and in a wise move by the CBC, they offer it in both Windows Media Player AND Quicktime).

Enjoy!

Rick Mercers best is still his "Talking to Americans" bits.

Pretty good collection of "Talking to Americans"
