This is one of the funniest things Rick mercer has done that i have seen. So many memorable moments

Rewatching this as I’m reading Rick’s book “The Road Years”! Loving the walk down memory lane he brings us on in the book (and talking specifically about this event!)

I live here and I didn't even know we did this 0_0 It's nice to know we're famous for giant pumpkins XD That's probably the most exciting thing there is about Pembroke.

As IF I couldn't be home for this D:

i knew we were special people but i didn't know we were this special. makes me feel prouder to be canadian right now. lol

they've been doing it in Notre Dame, NB for the past 5 years as well

man alive, we live in the world's randomest country. wooooo pumpkin boat racing!!

i already live in Canada - and I'm happy about it ;)

Rick should have done this in Windsor, Nova Scotia. Home of the Atlantic Giant Pumpkin and the Annual Pumpkin Regatta. Still funny though.

My husband was one of the 2 guys who had to bail from his pumpkin and swim to the finish line... It was sinking!

Haha whenever he's interviewing Sarah Boudens I walk behind him and go THUMBS UP as I walk back and forth. You can see me pretty easily

I bet that that is where the Great Pumpkin was born

As a Canadian, I have to say that we are the most patriotic people on the planet.

I live in pembroke, this is awesome!

i want to live in Canada. Nice Report!

I was there, awesome thing :)

Sara "the ringer" is great - good luck in the Olympics Sara!

Cool! Mee tooo!

Same here...I am in North Bay though.

perhaps Linus should head to Pembroke in search of the Great Pumpkin!

If you listen carefully, you can hear Rick say, "Eh?"

I'm from pembroke!!

@KnightofLight89 He's doing his rants in Toronto every week and I missed all of them...

So Funny

I want to live in Canada. They're American just like we are! (Keep in mind, people, Canada has every right to say Canada of America.) They're just better Americans.
