All Categories
May 05, 2012
7:30 pm Unashamedly proud, fiercely skeptical, and endlessly entertaining, Mercer knows the people, the culture, the passions and the heartaches. He knows Canada is a country worth laughing about, cheering about, and occasionally getting angry about. In this new keynote, Mercer pokes and prods at our institutions. 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.
