Rick and Haida Gwaii

Rick visits Masset, BC to work with master woodcarvers, and then paddles in a Haida canoe in Skidegate, BC.

Rick Mercer's show is a canadian treasure, keep up the great work ! !

[@conlinbryant5037]

Canadian yes. Treasure? To some.

"I could put a mirror on it and then you could pretend you're always on TV" The most poignant words spoke this whole flashy video.

The distance between Skidegate and St. John's, Newfoundland - about 8000 kilometres. It took Rick 47 years to get there.

[@-unclebuck-]

Every journey starts with a step.

"Ramming speed" can be found in the movie "Ben Hur" during the scene on the slave ships.

Paddled a smaller version of one of these in Tofino....Definitely a bucket list trip.

[@cindywagner4623]

Breathtaking!

[@DanTheCaptain]

4:58 I've bone that too when putting in a dry dock LOL

[@jimgreen9059]

Rick, no, you shouldn't row; you should paddle. Rowing is where the oars fit into a socket and you pull the 2 together--2 entirely different processes.

The arrogance of Mr. Mercer is exceeded only by his ethnocentrism.

[@conlinbryant5037]

Canadian Nationalism is the worst. "At least we're better than the Yanks!"
