Rick Mercer is ..... Talking To Americans (2001)



.... about Canada.

In this 2001 TV special, comedian Rick Mercer pokes fun at the great Canadian irritation that while Canadians know so much about the United States, Americans on the other hand, know next to nothing about Canada. In response, Rick Mercer conducts interviews in which he asks Americans, ranging from ordinary citizens to politicians, their opinion about patently ridiculous statements about Canada and records their unquestioningly ignorant responses.

See what other people say about it:

This is a must see for everyone - regardless of country of choice (or birth).

This is so good that it is shown and discussed with all Grade 12 students taking Social Studies.**
