Riassunto

NATIONAL BESTSELLER
Expanded and Updated and More Furiously Funny Than Ever
 
From Canada’s sharpest satirist: a massive eruption of rants—updated to include all of Season 10 of the Rick Mercer Report—plus brilliant essays, three of which were written especially for this book. Illustrated throughout with photos from Rick’s encounters and exploits across Canada.
 
“A good rant is cathartic. Ranting is what keeps me sane. They always come from a different place. Take the prime minister, for example. Sometimes when I rant about him, I am angry; other times, I am just severely annoyed—it’s an important distinction.”
—Rick Mercer, from his introduction
