Man, on every political video, there is ALWAYS a battle going on about Harper. Jesus... You guys picked the wrong place to have argument. It's a Youtube comedy video... Go troll on a news article or something. But not here.
@ufloetz Your comment is hateful and racist. The mere fact that you posted it demonstrates a gross lack of education. Any form of bigotry is unacceptable to Canadians and comments like your own do not reflect the precepts of the Canadian Human Rights Act, which govern our democracy.

@cdntripper I don't see any racism in that comment, but yes, he has no education whatsoever. It's discriminatory and surely, if he is Canadian at all, is a failed product of society.

Harper has been the best PM we have had in some time. All the Liberals can offer are losers like Cretien, Dion and now Ignatieff!! Talk about your embarrassments! I guess when you are young and stupid, or a new Canadian who is trying to take advantage of Canada, you vote Liberal; the rest of us will be voting for Harper!
The rest of us, mean the majority; if you are too smart to vote Liberal, and you don't vote Conservative, you are throwing away your vote on something that will make no difference.
@chadley6916 you're sarcastic, right? WHO THE HELL ASKS FOR A BREAK IN PARLIAMENT DURING A FINANCIAL TSUNAMI CRISIS !!!???? ESPECIALLY SINCE THE CRISIS JUST STARTED !!!!!!!!
Sarcastic about voting blue? I don't think so. Harper has done a very good job and if you are planing to vote Liberal, you are voting against Canada IMO. The Liberal party is a train wreck from Ignatieff on down. I mean, really, he is the best the Lib could come up with?!! Laughable.
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!
So almost a billion dollars go to CBC annually for anti-Conservative propaganda via Rick Mercer!
Agred totally with that, American examples of a gay actor getting poon, Neil Patrick Harris in Harold and Kumar, he's gay in real life but a drug crazed poon-dangler in the movie. Haha, poon-dangler is a funny adjective
LOL Very Canadian. Talk about lovely tax systems. Literally welfare credits for average and above incomes. Monthly NCTB credits, provincial child tax benefits until 6 years old each child. Non-refundable income tax credits. GST credit, GST/PST merger in - Ontario credit - 3 cheques to anyone making less than $160,000. Home renovation credits. Hang onto your repairs receipts, "just in case." Families are bringing in thousands monthly in many situations. LOL Working family credits. PRIME PLUMMET!

hmmm i think consistently telling voters (whether provincial or fed) that you're going to do one thing (get rid of gst, strengthen services, not do a coalition, plus anything that comes out of mcguinty's mouth) than doing the exact opposite everytime can also count as "fooling" *cough liberals cough*
Look I'm not a big Mcguinty fan either, but considering the mess that the Conservative Harris government left us (Ontario) in, I think Mcguinty is pretty darn good!
I don't think it's possible for the Bloc to have a majority, they only run in Quebec and that province doesn't have enough seats on its own to form a majority. That would only happen if the party started to run and win seats in other provinces, because you need 155 seats in Parliament to form a majority. But in the 90's it did form the official opposition in the Federal government when Chretien was in power.
The Bloc only held the official opposition position b/c the Liberals had so many seats, and the NDP and Cons collapse meant their seat counts were so dismal that the Bloc had the 2nd most almost by default.

Actually when you add up the total costs of a newbord added with inflation as well as other underpredicatable factors when the child starts going to school and day care. The 300 dollars is not substantial. However good effort on Rick Mercer's part for trying.
I think that was what Rick was trying to get at...300 bucks for a baby...yet, not much. Though I'm sure it could buy diapers for a few months, depending on how much the kid craps.
Nah, he'd be making fun of the liberal party also if they did similar things.. Actually if you watch the show, you'll find that he pokes fun at most politicians and party philosophies, regardless of where they lie on the spectrum. SO like Gillhoolee said, lighten up.
and also, if it means anything. i vote consercative(not a liberal fan, and i hate the left wing, i would vote for a party in the dead centre if there was one.)but at the same time, i love rick mercer, i agree with and beleive in everything he says pretty much.
At the same time I apologize for the rant I just had below and if you think that it should be deleted orangefsh then censor it out (you can do that right?). Thank you and good night.
Well, you shouldn't have posted it. And for your information it has nothing to do with Americans...I don't know what you are talking about "anti canadian BS", we are making fun of ourselves...that's why it's so funny. Rick Mercer is friggin HILARIOUS.
Oh ya, and holycow, i can't stand you people. I know people that dislike the american government but the whole reason that there is a canada-america feud is people like you keep fueling the fire with anti canadian BS!
Man, I hate these retarded anti-Canadian or anti-American gayass fights. Thank you to everyone who talked about the VIDEO not the politics behind it. Rick Mercer is a political satirist and will make fun of anything that canadians might think is dumb or funny. Plus, not all his skits and shows have anything to do with politics OR america SO STOP BEING FLAMING IDIOTS. I mean, he gets hockey players to pretend they act like housewives or sports teams to pick on themselevs. Contd...
Can we all stop fighting about this crap? It's comedy, if you don't think it's funny then just leave the page, and if you hate Canada just nuke us and get it over with!
Rick Mercers awesome! My favorite episode is the one where he has Harper making fun of himself along with him - primarily on his top five priorities shortly after the election.
Everybody needs to stop for a minute and remember that this is just a clip from a TV show. Relax. If you don't think its funny thats fine, if you do great. No need to troll.
And... *gasp* he's really only PRETENDING to be married to that redhaired woman- she's not his wife at all! The guy is an actor and a comedian. It's his job to take on other characters. Why should you care about his personal sex life?
why should his sex matter and so hes from newfoundland quite being a homophobe hes gay proud and funny as hell i think rick mercer is awsome and im shute 99% of canada would agree. i bet ur american.he probly interviewed u on rick mercer talks to americans and ur bitter.
ok holycowshit.. have u even seen the rick mercer report except on youtube?? during the ellction he made funn of the liberals worse than anyother party so hes not working for them, cause y would they make themselves look bad.. and if u cant get over that hes gay u got problems, man just calm down and watch something that u like on youtube and fuck off the rmr!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
good point "lets blame Canada" - it's a great song and it's an idea which is long overdue because Canada is a country of lazy misfits all stumbling around stoned who want to blame George Bush for their own pathetic and meaningless lives... any Canadian with talent or an IQ over 80 is living in the States - the rest of you sit around doing nothing but complain
Actually the Canadian humour written on those shows is by Canadian writers, but that is what makes it funny. The real difference between America and Canada is that Canada can take a joke
@chrystalized19 Thats BS, of course the US can take a joke, the only difference is we twist it and distort it until it becomes something mildly offensive because we are clever like that :p
it's interesting how those who are paid to upload liberal propaganda (like the Mercer Report) are always even busier censoring comments critical of Canada's fanatical left - yes, it's true, Mercer is a fanatical left winger paid by Canadian taxpayers to promote liberal values (which includes homosexuality)
I agree completly with the concept of freedom of expression (censorship blows). Though I dont think any Liberal involment in our media would quite measure up to what Chavez is up to.
(Have you noticed that of the comments for this video, pretty much half are just you and me argueing?)
Yeah, things are pretty crazy, and Venezuela isnt a very pleasent place right now. But then again, whats happening there is not totally media related, there is also the whole military aspect of Chavez' actions.
Yes, I know all that. I recognize that the Liberals fell because of their corruption, and I also see that they will not likely ever get into power for a very long time (they might actually dissolve before such an occasion). I am glad we can come into agreement on that. Also happy to see you aren't name calling.
Anyhoo, the Liberals are finished. Even if they did at one point control the media (which I still dont believe), I dont think they would have very much influence any more.
Acting stupid? Excuse me but I'm not the 39 year old who spends his days arguing with 18 year olds over the internet about Liberl propaganda.
If the media was controlled by the Liberals, then why was there a flood of news stories and specials on Liberal scandal? Why would a group that controls the media let that very system tell the people about its lies and deciet?
You only seem to see what you want to, stop bitching and actually think about what you type next time.
You keep saying that the Liberals do all these bad things, but you say nothing on how they do it. So what if a station gets government funding? That doesnt mean jack.
Do you even read what I post? Friends Parents! Not mine. And you wonder why I called you ignorant.
Currently under that minority government, the Liberals dont have a say about financing either. Thats all up to CBC.
Besides, why are you bitching about 'liberal propaganda' when your lovely Conservatives are in power? If it were propaganda then it didnt really work now did it? So stop complaining.
Oooo, theres that repetion again. One of my friends parents is just a year older then you, you should be ashamed to be argueing with someone young enough to be your child.
By the way, the CBC is funded by the Canadian government, which right now is under Conservative control. So really Mercer is being funded by your beloved Conservatives.
If you even paid attention to your own arguments, you would have realized that.
wow, you've got to love youtube arguments, i swear the internet has made people 3 times stupider....guys, just step back and realize what you're saying, go read a book or something instead of having pointless arguments on the internet over a comedy show.
You seem to just be repeating the same thing over and over, are you out of stupid comments? Too bad, I was enjoying my time laughing at your foolishness.
Do you realize how stupid that sounds? Let me guess, you also believe the US government is responsible for 911 and that pharmacudical companies own the media right? Give me a break, this whole liberal propaganda thing makes you sound like an idiot.
And when did I say I relied on that show for news? Laughs maybe, but not news. Besides, this is Canada, people are allowed to be gay here.
I am defending it because its funny. Besides, why would a show thats liberal propaganda make fun of the liberals? (If you ever even watched the show, you would know that Mercer picks on them just as bad)
I cant even comprehend how someone your age could be acting so childish. You should know better then that. Its a sad day when someone less then half your age is more mature then you are.
You list your age as 39, and yet you argue with 18 year olds over the internet. I question whether or not you even have a life, you may just be the oldest person on this site (pretty sad).
All your comment does is reconfirm the fact that you are acting like a child, I suggest you only respond when you decide to grow up and act your age.
I dont support the Liberals either you know, they are very corrupt. I am just trying to point out that your all mighty Conservatives are no better.
Am I arrogant? Not really, I just like a good argument; keeps the mind sharp. But it does tick me off when those I am speaking to resort to namecalling like children.
You realize that it is under conservative governments that the rich get richer and the poor get poorer right? The Conservatives are just as corrupt as the liberals are you know. And yes, thank god we are not a nation of intolerant, paranoid and arrogant people like the US.
So now I see you are just going on to name calling and petty insults. If thats the case then I guess I won that argument. Nice try though, better luck next time.
As for the 'evil' that is the USSR, Cuba and North Korea, you realize that none of those are actual communist countries right? They make that claim in the beginning to gain support from the people, and then do a 180 and turn the nation into a dictatorship (which is more akin to facism then communism).
It is not my opinion but plain and simple fact that in a socialist society the rich/poor gap is much smaller and there is greater social equality. This is why the people of the two example nations I used (Switzerland and Sweden) have it so good.
Socialism did work, and is still working in places like Sweden and Switzerland. If worked out properly, democratic socialism is the best form of government there is.
I have read your argument with Freecell82, and he is winning. You have continuously failed to answer his simple question, what are traditional Canadian family values?
Sorry man, but you just come off as an ignorant ass who fails to admit when he is wrong; which is quite childish.
Hey, letitbleed1234, I am straight and I am not a socialist and nothing that you say will change that. Again, you ignored my questions. HOW IS LIBERALISM A THREAT? WHAT ARE FAMILY VALUES? WHAT ARE FAMILY VALUES? WHAT ARE FAMILY VALUES? Understand now? Define family values.
define, verb. To give a definition for the meaning of a word; "Define `family values'"
I also fail to see how moving away from religion is bad, as you suggest.
Socialized medicine... Yeah, I guess you could call not allowing poor people to die because they can't afford health care socialism. I call it civilization. But in any case, you STILL haven't answered my question. Can you please define family values. Can you please tell me why Canada is doomed. If you can't do those two things, just STFU and GTFO. I'll repeat it. DEFINE FAMILY VALUES! Don't ignore that. Just fucking tell me what they are and why they're so important.
Socialist? That's a stretch. A huge stretch. I am not socialist and neither is Mercer. You know nothing about my politics. BTW, North Korea and Cuba are commie. Get it right. And it's true, they are not good places to live at all. What you have not stated, though, is WHY Canada is doomed without family values. Again, can you define these mysterious "family values?"
The future of Canadian society is NOT dependent on family values. Could you please define family values? Traditional values DO discriminate against people, and that's why tradition is sometimes stupid. Mercer's agenda is to be funny. And how exactly do you know what the interests of Canadians are? You don't. It's contrary to YOUR interests, not Canada's.
"Family values." Seems to be code for discrimination against gay people. Honestly, WHO CARES! We should just leave them alone. Who gives a shit about what they do. And I cannot stand people who say "we've always done it this way, so we should keep doing it this way." People like you.
1st of all what have gay people ever done to you and yeah harpers budget premotes family values for qubece harper shoujld worry about the country he leads not a provence that threatens to seperate!!!!!!!!!
Rick Mercer maks fun of all politicians who make stupid decisions...and if memory serves it was Stephen Harper who canceled the Child Care Plan....not very family friendly if you ask me.

I think that was what Rick was trying to get at...300 bucks for a baby...yet, not much. Though I'm sure it could buy diapers for a few months, depending on how much the kid craps.

Nah, he'd be making fun of the liberal party also if they did similar things.. Actually if you watch the show, you'll find that he pokes fun at most politicians and party philosophies, regardless of where they lie on the spectrum. SO like Gillhoolee said, lighten up.

Well, you shouldn't have posted it. And for your information it has nothing to do with Americans...I don't know what you are talking about "anti canadian BS", we are making fun of ourselves...that's why it's so funny. Rick Mercer is friggin HILARIOUS.

Oh ya, and holycow, i can't stand you people. I know people that dislike the american government but the whole reason that there is a canada-america feud is people like you keep fueling the fire with anti canadian BS!
Hordamorf 4 years ago
Man, I hate these retarded anti-Canadian or anti-American gayass fights. Thank you to everyone who talked about the VIDEO not the politics behind it. Rick Mercer is a political satirist and will make fun of anything that canadians might think is dumb or funny. Plus, not all his skits and shows have anything to do with politics OR america SO STOP BEING FLAMING IDIOTS. I mean, he gets hockey players to pretend they act like housewives or sports teams to pick on themselevs. Contd...

I agree completly with the concept of freedom of expression (censorship blows). Though I dont think any Liberal involment in our media would quite measure up to what Chavez is up to.
(Have you noticed that of the comments for this video, pretty much half are just you and me argueing?)
DeanHarper 4 years ago
Yeah, things are pretty crazy, and Venezuela isnt a very pleasent place right now. But then again, whats happening there is not totally media related, there is also the whole military aspect of Chavez' actions.
DeanHarper 4 years ago
Yes, I know all that. I recognize that the Liberals fell because of their corruption, and I also see that they will not likely ever get into power for a very long time (they might actually dissolve before such an occasion). I am glad we can come into agreement on that. Also happy to see you aren't name calling.
Anyhoo, the Liberals are finished. Even if they did at one point control the media (which I still dont believe), I dont think they would have very much influence any more.
DeanHarper 4 years ago
Acting stupid? Excuse me but I'm not the 39 year old who spends his days arguing with 18 year olds over the internet about Liberl propaganda.
If the media was controlled by the Liberals, then why was there a flood of news stories and specials on Liberal scandal? Why would a group that controls the media let that very system tell the people about its lies and deciet?
You only seem to see what you want to, stop bitching and actually think about what you type next time.
DeanHarper 4 years ago
And how exactly is the media tightly controlled?
You keep saying that the Liberals do all these bad things, but you say nothing on how they do it. So what if a station gets government funding? That doesnt mean jack.
Correlation does not mean causation.

Do you even read what I post? Friends Parents! Not mine. And you wonder why I called you ignorant.
Currently under that minority government, the Liberals dont have a say about financing either. Thats all up to CBC.
Besides, why are you bitching about 'liberal propaganda' when your lovely Conservatives are in power? If it were propaganda then it didnt really work now did it? So stop complaining.
DeanHarper 4 years ago
Oooo, theres that repetion again. One of my friends parents is just a year older then you, you should be ashamed to be argueing with someone young enough to be your child.
By the way, the CBC is funded by the Canadian government, which right now is under Conservative control. So really Mercer is being funded by your beloved Conservatives.
If you even paid attention to your own arguments, you would have realized that.
DeanHarper 4 years ago
wow, you've got to love youtube arguments, i swear the internet has made people 3 times stupider....guys, just step back and realize what you're saying, go read a book or something instead of having pointless arguments on the internet over a comedy show.

All your comment does is reconfirm the fact that you are acting like a child, I suggest you only respond when you decide to grow up and act your age.

I dont support the Liberals either you know, they are very corrupt. I am just trying to point out that your all mighty Conservatives are no better.
Am I arrogant? Not really, I just like a good argument; keeps the mind sharp. But it does tick me off when those I am speaking to resort to namecalling like children.

As for the 'evil' that is the USSR, Cuba and North Korea, you realize that none of those are actual communist countries right? They make that claim in the beginning to gain support from the people, and then do a 180 and turn the nation into a dictatorship (which is more akin to facism then communism).
DeanHarper 4 years ago
It is not my opinion but plain and simple fact that in a socialist society the rich/poor gap is much smaller and there is greater social equality. This is why the people of the two example nations I used (Switzerland and Sweden) have it so good.
DeanHarper 4 years ago
Socialism did work, and is still working in places like Sweden and Switzerland. If worked out properly, democratic socialism is the best form of government there is.
I have read your argument with Freecell82, and he is winning. You have continuously failed to answer his simple question, what are traditional Canadian family values?
Sorry man, but you just come off as an ignorant ass who fails to admit when he is wrong; which is quite childish.
DeanHarper 4 years ago
Hey, letitbleed1234, I am straight and I am not a socialist and nothing that you say will change that. Again, you ignored my questions. HOW IS LIBERALISM A THREAT? WHAT ARE FAMILY VALUES? WHAT ARE FAMILY VALUES? WHAT ARE FAMILY VALUES? Understand now? Define family values.
define, verb. To give a definition for the meaning of a word; "Define `family values'"
I also fail to see how moving away from religion is bad, as you suggest.
Freecell82 4 years ago
Socialized medicine... Yeah, I guess you could call not allowing poor people to die because they can't afford health care socialism. I call it civilization. But in any case, you STILL haven't answered my question. Can you please define family values. Can you please tell me why Canada is doomed. If you can't do those two things, just STFU and GTFO. I'll repeat it. DEFINE FAMILY VALUES! Don't ignore that. Just fucking tell me what they are and why they're so important.
Freecell82 4 years ago
Socialist? That's a stretch. A huge stretch. I am not socialist and neither is Mercer. You know nothing about my politics. BTW, North Korea and Cuba are commie. Get it right. And it's true, they are not good places to live at all. What you have not stated, though, is WHY Canada is doomed without family values. Again, can you define these mysterious "family values?"
Freecell82 4 years ago
The future of Canadian society is NOT dependent on family values. Could you please define family values? Traditional values DO discriminate against people, and that's why tradition is sometimes stupid. Mercer's agenda is to be funny. And how exactly do you know what the interests of Canadians are? You don't. It's contrary to YOUR interests, not Canada's.
Freecell82 4 years ago
"Family values." Seems to be code for discrimination against gay people. Honestly, WHO CARES! We should just leave them alone. Who gives a shit about what they do. And I cannot stand people who say "we've always done it this way, so we should keep doing it this way." People like you.
