He reveals hypocrisy at the highest reaches of power. And he draws our attention to hardworking, unsung heroes. In the process, he illuminates everything thats great and irreverent about Canada. Mercers unrivaled genius is his ability to make you laugh at, question, think about, and, most of all, appreciate this glorious country we all share.
