  • "The future's looking Tory blue"

    I like that

  • LOL The liberals were decimated.

  • The problem with soialism is eventually, you run out of other peoples money- margaret thatcher. with the ndp everyone would be paying 70 percent taxes and getting little to no benefits. im sure the only people who would be making money would be the ndp mps. With harper, canada actually weathered the economic storm for the past 3 years. with the liberals or the ndp, there would be zero chance of that. this country needs harper. this country need fiscal responsibility.

  • @inlovequestionmark Please before you continue being completely wrong, check out the numbers on very liberal countries. Holland, Switzerland, Norway and denmark for example. All excellent in economy, all have the highest ratings in the world for best countries to live. The only problem with the NDP is that people are too stupid to realize they can't get more for less. It's what conservatives promise, but hell, continue on being ignorant, really.

  • Can anyone tell me what Rick Mercer's Political allegiance is or what it strongly seems to be?

  • @doomsword86 To "eat crow" means admitting to a mistake on which a stong position/opinion as stated: stating before an election that a politician's "time is coming to a close" and that politician and/his party are elected to a majority. I lean to the left of the whole Conservative-Reform-Alliance-P­arty rabble, but it's better than 10 years of unchecked Liberal corruption (blame Presto Manning for that one).

  • @doomsword86 I know a place that serves a decent plate of Crow. Heck they'll even feed you,... all you have to do is open your mouth.

    Sorry,... I couldn't resist.

    Me? I'm waiting for a conservative party to form in Canada. So I guess Bush Light will have to do 'til Satan builds a skating rink.

  • @doomsword86

    What has changed since then?  oh...btw do not look at the pols you won't like it...

  • @ TheLastMizzy I am SURE the rest of the program was Conservative bashing.

  • The free ride continues.....and will continue....until Ignatieff steps down....

  • liberals who say the conservatives are like the Republicans are out to lunch. Canadians are much more passive and comparing the conservatives to americans is like saying most Canadians are like Americans seeing we voted them in. There is a big difference between rural america and rural Canada, Canadians are much more informed in nature and and not influenced by a strong Christian believe. Harper is bringing us through this slump better than most countries.

  • @Obsean10001

    Actually, its unfortuante that Canada is becoming more and more liberal in my oppinion.For once, i wish that we were more like the americans.

  • Be on notice steven harper, your free ride is about to......

    Continue!

  • The liberals have only one plank in their platform: that they should be in power. Everything else takes a backseat to this one policy.

  • @sudburylawyer That's also the Conservative platform, and to a slightly lesser extent, the NDP and Bloc platforms. All they want to say is what you want to hear, which is why I've always scratched my head as to why they're all so damn bad at it.

  • I hope that my mouse still works in the morning, all the slamming with my hands and what,this is what the Liberal opposition has offered to Canadians, support by non counted dissent.Screw the Liberals,in the famous words of a Conservative cabinet minister,"give back the money"!That is all that has to be said!J.B had it right in damning those Libs to stand in their place, write a cheque, and "give us back the money"!

  • Liberal goverment had allowed the "Tainted Blood, Hepatitus, Aids" scandal and wold not even compensate the thousands of victims. It was the Liberals who had the "campaign funds" scandal, Chetien money scandal, etc.. etc... Now anyone who votes Conservative is villified as Right Wing for simply wanting integrity in Government. Go figure!

  • @bobisnohere1 Nah, not just right wing, but also painfully naïve for expecting any better from Harper despite his track record.

  • I love how over-the-top it is just to back down.

  • The Conservatives have only been forced to adopt more centrist Keynesian economics by the two opposing parties to avoid an election after having repeatedly deny that Canada is heading into a recession.

  • So funny, but it is also true.RMC is the best.

  • the liberals and the conservatives are centrist and basicly the same but with diffrent names. the omly party that is far from the politcal center is the green

  • The Liberals used to be where the NDP is at today especially at Trudeau's time, but they have since Chretien been for free trade with some regulations to ensure theoretical potential (which success can be seen at Canada's strong banking system during recession). The Conseravtives, however, are for complete market deregulation. On social policies, they are as conservative as the Republicans are (except most Canadians are not, therefore they adjust).

  • Agree with you, CanadianQueer. My favourite RMR piece; every time I watch it I laugh again (hey, if you don't laugh you cry, right?). And the sad thing is that, apart from the reference to 'No one can understand our leader speak', it's as fresh and true now as when it was made.

  • Best. RMR. EVER! I've seen this clip probably 20 times and it just never gets old.

  • This now the OFFICAL liberal theme song,Everyone in canada has got to see this..Wear a bag over your head and pinch your nose if you vote for them.

  • Way too funny..great job on the skit.!!!

  • This is my favorite of his skits.

  • Rick Mercer rocks!!!

  • this is funny finally Mercer makes fun of the liberals

  • I thought he made fun of everybody!

  • laugh my head off!!

  • hahahahha amaaazing.

  • You're free ride is about to... Continue! LOL

  • Holy crap. Just saw this and can hardly breathe, I'm laughing so hard.

  • were all a little bit liberal ok

  • LMAO 5 star!!!!!

  • "no one can understand our leader speak" haha, whole video is awsome!

  • XDDD

    God love Rick Mercer.

  • im a leftist and voted green in the last election because I was under the notion that the Liberals couldnt lose in my riding *kitchener-waterloo". as it turns out, the liberals lost by less than 80 votes. I regret voting green, but atleast the green party gets some money out of it.

  • 310319447: "voted green in the last election because I was under the notion that the Liberals couldn't lose in my riding *kitchener-waterloo". as it turns out, the liberals lost by less than 80 votes"

    Crap like that is exactly why we need proportional representation. I'm a Conservative voter but even I can see the only reason that party is in power is because the left is splitting the vote. If Conservatives want to govern they should have to win over a majority of Canadians. That's democracy.

  • @studentofsmith except all proposed forms of PR have x number of MPs that answer to no electorate. Ie the opposite of democracy. A far simpler solution would be to have separate PM and Parliamentary elections.

  • Be on notice, Stephen Harper.. your free ride is about to.. CONTINUE!!! lmao way to go Rick Mercer!

  • haha wow that is just AWESOME!

  • "nobody can understand our leader speak"

    i lol'd

  • Say what you want about Dion, he's a horrible leader in his backstabbing party, but anyone who calls him a separatist at heart needs to get a fucking clue.

  • your an idiot the commercials pay for it

  • Because you're actually a racist republican living in the wrong country?

  • more conservative bashing! mercer wants the libs to fight against the conservatives. harper has a free ride like someone who wants to earn their power, not "take it"

  • Ummmmmmmm... What? That whole video was making fun of the liberals and how they've turned into an irrelevant pansy party (sadly). It's called "Liberal song" and how they're "giving up, and loving it!" Where the hell did you get "conservative bashing" from?

  • Woah, so much confetti!

  • How many times have liberals and conservatives been in office? All the past terms.

    How many times has Canada changed? none.

  • NDP = New Democratic Party.

  • NDP means new Democratic party look it up

  • how many years do they have left?

  • sweet like the unicycling in there

  • Definitely weren't able to win an election. =)

  • Harper has been proven a liar again. Using Slap suit tactics to try and beat down any critics.

    Ya Dion Sucks as a front man, but the Liberals are the only party with a proven track record of healthy economy when in majority.

    Do you want More Mulroney and GW Bush type politics?

    The PCs have a big surprise coming for you, check out my video Reply to find out what it is.

    YOU NEED TO SEE THIS

    UNLESS YOU HAVE A WEAK HEART, THEN PLEASE DON'T WATCH.

  • you free ride is about to continu! lol

  • Vote GREEN

  • We all need to vote strategically in order to have a chance of maybe a progressive government. Voting green at this point will help the Conservatives only.

    We need proportional representation then all our votes will actually count.

  • I would, if the Green Party didn't oppose genetic engineering. Elizabeth May came out as very left and emotional the moment her party had a seat, then blew her chance at more by telling people not to vote Green. People resigned in the Green Party over this. Until they have a new leader, I'm not voting Green.

  • That is Funny!!

    Ya gotta love it!!

  • Magnetoboy, Harris then picked up from Rae, slashed social programs and environmental programs, killed a bunch of people in Walkerton, and ended up with a much bigger deficit (during a global economic boom), than the NDP was forced to have during a recesson. Who is more incompetent then? That's right, Conservatives baby!!

  • well said meerkat1954

  • Tommy Douglas had 17 balanced budgets. The books are balanced under Gary Doer in Manitoba, and Romanow took Saskatchewan out of a Conservative deficit. The NDP can balance the books!

  • LOL! Rick rules.

  • NDP 08!

  • NDP is trash

  • Thats not true

  • I was a Conservetive until Harper became leader.

  • Then you have never truthfully been a conservative.

    Harper is the best we have seen in Canada in years.

  • Check out the leader's debate available on youtube now...They ALL did an amazing job and it'll give you a better idea of the party differences.

  • That was quality :)

  • Harper's Conservatives is far more 'right wing' than any Conservative party. I can't believe people are falling for his little 'tricks'. How is he best for 'the economy'? He HASN'T DONE OR PROPOSED anything. As for those who are voting for him 'because Dion is an idiot' - better an idiot than a right-wing, ideologically archaic robot.

  • More liberal based media for the loss. They have an agenda.. Its all liberal funded media so they are going to make most of the cracks against the conservative (as much as Rick Mercer says he makes fun of all parties equally) Steven Harper is doing a fine job.

  • Where in that video are the cracks against the conservatives? The whole song was mocking the liberals! Obviously, some right leaning Canadians are so paranoid that they see any attempt at political humor as an attack against conservatives, as if you're all SO fucking persecuted. Give me a break. The liberals don't have some secret agenda and the conservatives are NOT being treated unfairly by the media. This is Canada. There isn't a huge difference in our two major parties anyway.

  • @TheLastMizzy I'm a conservative, and I couldn't agree more.

  • @TheLastMizzy

    there is a huge difference...

    The first one is stupid!

    The other one is dumb!

  • @TheLastMizzy Are you really this much of a moron? Rick makes fun of all political parties, there is no anti-liberal conspiracy here you braindead fuckwit.

    Some skits make fun of liberals, others make fun of conservatives. No shit there were no cracks at the Conservatives, this skit was taking shots at the Liberals you moron.

  • @TheLastMizzy I know you've probably gotten this about 43509734504 times, but have you ever watched the Rick Mercer Report? He rips on the conservatives more than any other party.

  • @Anghellik9 Its hard to compare because the conservatives are the leading party, and have been for most of the time Rick has had his show. So i think that obviously the people making decisions get it more. Also, considering the conservatives are always trying to cut the CBC budget, self-preservation means that the CBC will always be skewed slightly to the left.

  • @alxcookie I know that, you've missed my point. I was making a response to a guy who was angry that the video didn't have any rips on conservatives.

  • @TheLastMizzy Pretty much. Mercer usually takes more shots at the Conservatives (or whoever the current government is) and I can appreciate a joke from either side. But in this day and age both parties are so moderate it's hard to tell the difference anyway.

  • Vote ACB

  • In this coming election Canadians need to vote ABC.

    Anything But Conservative.

    Don't Let Stephen Harper lie his way to Parliament again!

  • hey propaghandi, you might want to choose a different name if you want to be taken seriously. but then i suppose you know best, we'll be here to clean up the mess you make if your pansy ass parties get in again.

  • Propagandhi is a punk band from Winnipeg.

    "pansy ass parties"? I guess you wold feel much more comfortable in the states under a Bush administration.

  • 3 letters..... n d p

  • is that a joke.

    yeah if you want our economy to fall flat on its face.

  • let me guess - you're voting conservative.

    wake up and see.. our economy is falling flat on its face the way things are now.. and because of people like you, who are too stupid to see how idiotic Harper really is, nothing's being done about it. So open your eyes, and vote NDP.

  • the worst thing for the economy right now is higher taxes....that is exactly what jack layton would do.

  • Actually, get your facts straight.

    Harper just gave the oil companies a 5billion dollar tax reduction. Where do you think he's gonna get the 5billion back from, my guess would be from subtly upping the taxes paid by citizens. Jack Layton wants to keep the tax money we'd get from the oil companies and spend it helping our economy.

  • @Brd1515 yes but un like harper who cuts and spends like there is no tommorrow for nothing exept to get votes.

    jack layton will acctually put the money back into the system in the form of education funding and health care.

  • Ya Jacky boy, will increase wages of public employees, costing this country billions.

  • @Gardenstatehomecomin

    Its unfortunate to see people like yourself actually beleive in the crap the politics say.All politics are morons and crooks.I am a conservative myself but i follow no such political party.

  • @zeratul1356 they are all crooks. but that doesn't mean they wont do good things.

  • @Gardenstatehomecomin

    But do more bad than good.Power corrupts.9/10 men would become corrupted in politics.Now, on a personal level, I like Jack Layton more than Harper or Ignatieff, I just think hes on the wrong party.

  • @zeratul1356 sooo you are saying the Conservatives and the Liberals are less corrupt than the NDP but according to you absoute power corrupts absolutely. until now the NDP havn't even come close to forming any kind of government. federaly that is.

  • @Gardenstatehomecomin

    Dont twist my words.I never said they were wrose than the conservatives and the liberals(even though I wouldnt be surprised).All political party's suck.That being said, the NDP are idiots.Which is why I wish Jack Layton was on a different party, because maybe then, I would vote for him.

  • @zeratul1356 The NDP are idiots? They're our best chance at preventing our country from turning Canada into America Junior.

  • harper an idiot?

    fuck you! jack layton is a fucking clown you douche bag! NDP sucks ass... nah im kidding i dont give a shit who wins... just not liberals

  • If you don't have an opinion besides: "I don't want the Liberals in office" don't call me a douche bag. I didn't offend you.

  • the tax breaks for the companies was 1/3 of the amount that he gave to families.

    We can talk all day about getting facts straight, but don't act like you're not making a mountain out of a mole hill.

    150 bil > 50 bil ... who knew? NDP can't do math, THAT's why Jack can't be in.

  • Sure I'll vote NDP. Jack can then do to Canada what Bob Rae did to Ontario in the nineties... Add 40 billion dollars to Ontario's debt and have more people out of work when he left office than when he started.

  • Fucking right man. NDP can go to hell.

  • were backin out with a smile :D

  • I HAVE A PICTURE WITH HIM HELL YA

  • ici c'est le bloc!!

  • Long Live King Harper!!!!!! This should be a cake walk vs a spineless "leader" who cannot decide if a carbon tax is good or bad for our country. A leader who is "massaging" this policy as he dreams it up. Why don't they just put David Suzuki at the helm....at least english speaking Canada would understand him.

  • LMAO, loved it. Harper has done an awesome job, any honest person can see that. Dion is a lying weasel and I wouldn't trust him to take out my garbage.

  • Harper, leader of our government, the very organization in charge of making sure that the law is respected, will go against a law he created himself which forbids him to launch an election at this moment. If we can't trust him with the responsibility of respecting a rule he made, we certainly can't trust him with the power of a majority. Dion is a brilliant guy, but not a people person, Bob Rae should be at the head of the Liberals, and then, Canada could have a true leader.

  • he also goes back on big promises that he made in the last election.Remember when he said senators must be elected not appointed?And once he got elected he appointed a candidate from Quebec who lost to the senate.And recall he was saying that anyone who crosses the floor should have another by-election or something like a new vote...and then David Emerson crosses the floor once the Conservatives win.

  • Not to mention the law he passed saying elections will be set American style every four years on Oct 14th, and yet here we are gearing up for an election based on his discretion...Harper is just as fake as Dion...my riding is NDP strong, i guess Ill go along with them...

  • im liberal but the liberal party is a joke and dion is an idiot so i guess ill just vote conservative my life isn't really effected anyways.

  • If you did vote Liberal before you'd be better off voting NDP. Harper is trying to impose media censorship and he's doing this with a minority government, if he's given a majority he will ruin this country.

  • the NDP is to socialist we had harper and our country in the first 6 months of this year was the hottest economy in the world the only problem we have is the automotive sector and some factories who relly heavily on the US but my life hasnt changed and what censorship are you taking about?

  • Well NDP isn't ready to run the government but it'd be nice if they were at least given the opposition instead of the Liberals. There's quite a few videos of how Harper censors the media to his liking. I can't post links but just try searching 'Harper censorship' or something similar. It's sickening.

  • ill look into it and if so i just wont vote.

  • It's not true. It's typical CBC left fear mongering. The CBC sucks, turn on CPAC for fair and balanced coverage. Stephen Harper is fine, he is te best for our economy. The CBC wants to instill fear into everyone cause they are the pro Liberal party. This is what makes them shit.... they are like the FOX news of Canada.

  • so true

  • Bob Rae, hahaha! Depends whether Ontario has a short memory.

  • Most excellent!

  • tory blue hell yes

  • I love it!

  • if they're led by people like Harper, we certainly should care

  • true

  • yay pq

  • dude librals r so fuvcking gay and retarded i dont know y they klive in our country

  • I'm not going to take your comment seriously. Learn to type you tard.

  • 'tard' as you so eloquently put it, does not fall within the purview of the dictionary, please use real words rather than their butchered counterparts. have a good day.

  • Wow really that's the best you could come up with?

  • Damn man! This guys is funny! jaja

    He's like Saturday Night Live and Jon Stewart mixed together!! Excellent!

  • ssuper1515 are u a freaking idiot??? Wow...jsut throwing it out there but after multiple american incounters...do you guys have a history class down there?

  • I cant believe Rick is gay...

  • yeah same man

  • who cares? Still funny.

  • Yah me too

  • He's a great example of a normal gay guy that isn't a flaming mess. I'm glad he's on tv.

  • Why not?

  • "Why are there blacks in the back ground? There are no blacks in Canada! "

    mightwanna check your facts there, sure theres less black for 1 simple reason we didnt have black slaves,most of our blacks are escaped american/jamaican slaves

  • and where the fuk do you live?

  • oh wait America that would explain your ignorance

  • We have less blacks, like someone said, because we didn't buy them and bring them to our country to sell them. Plus we have a smalle rpopulation, yet our culture is basically a bunch of cultures all mixed into one so saying this is stupid.

  • I find it stupid that you even pay attention to peoples' colours

    whether there are or aren't many...who cares...and what's your point?

  • Liberals suck, tories suck, they all suck. Period.

  • agreed

  • economic growth is an inflation and rising cost of life system were everyone has a job but everyone is a homeless nomad, its a system were you slave your ass off at a job and can barely afford anything regardless. Strong economies make the rich richer and the poor starve to death, A strong economy is a societal self destruct switch.

  • Damn I wish we had this guy in the states. Conservative skits, I like it.

  • don't worry dude he spends enough time making fun of conservatives....also just search "talking to americans" and see how much you still love him lol

  • talking to americans was the funniest comedy show I watched that entire year!

  • ? We have similar ~ both Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert. Stewart is funny and straight up, and Stephen Colbert of "The Colbert Report" is an act; a self-righteous, super conservative, super Catholic persona he plays. Bill Mahr is pretty liberal, and the comedian Lewis Black is no idiot, either.

  • story of a Canadian liberal.. stand for nothin fall for anything..

  • lol why is it always a big Politic Party "Battle" on all mercers videos....there supposed to be funny....

  • I hope Dion grows a pair soon taking into consideration recent Bernier scandal and brings on the election. This family of 3 is darn ready to send cons back to Alberta.

  • Democrats!!!!!!!!!

    Forget who made this!

  • LOL you are well out of order There is no Democrats here.

  • I don't like Harper at all but they have a minority government not a majority. An election with Dion at the helm will just produce a Tory majority and we don't need that. So get rid of Dion and put some one with a pair in charge!

  • I want the environment to be a top priority and since the Liberals did not do anything for 13 years, I must vote Conservative--they are going to do something. (The closest that Dion character came to Kyoto was petting his dog!)
