If you are a proud Canadian, like me, you will enjoy these video clips taken from Rick Mercer’s “Talking to Americans” series, in which he poses facetious questions to notable Americans, to see what kind of reactions he can get.
Personally, I think this is the best TV Canada has ever produced, aside from any televised hockey game.

Absolutely correct! It is television brilliance. I am American, yet I feel that Rick’s subject matter is something we deserve to be ridiculed over. So many Americans are blinded by their own nationalism, and therefore oblivious to Canadian culture & basic politics. Canada is not mentioned frequently in the media here, which is too bad, because even George W. Bush told Mercer that Canada is “our best neighbor to the north”. LOL
