This is so beautiful Rick. You would want to go into sheep farming. My preparation for sheep farming brought me here from the Morrys' page and this was a burst of motivational energy for me. Thanks for doing this. And thanks to all the farms, family and friends involved, not to forget the Chef Jeremy Charles. Cheers.
These folks don't need gym memberships. Their lives are full of arduous activities, like cliff scrambling, sheep hefting, jigging, rowing, net hauling...day traders need not apply. This is what made The Mercer Report great; the celebration of Canadian folks, just being themselves.
Rick, once again you have presented a facet of Canadian life that few see and even fewer appreciate. All while poking a little fun at yourself. Great job.
My son-in-law is from Ferryland, the scenery there is astounding and breathtaking. Having a picnic up by the lighthouse and watching the whales frolic in the ocean is priceless! If you were lucky enough to see pictures of an enormous iceberg last spring, they were taken in this very area! The lighthouse features the picnics, with lemonade and sandwiches made from their homemade bread, baked right in the lighthouse! It's a slice of heaven, right here!
Newfoundland is the most amazing place on earth . My partner just returned from Cambodia , Vietnam & Bali & stated that , although awesome ; no place she has ever been , can knock Newfoundland off the top spot . Mistaken Point , caribou , whales , icebergs , moose & the most incredible people you will ever meet anywhere on the planet !
I can't believe this is the last season of RMR. I watch the video and it makes me happy - Rick just comes across as such a good person - and then I remember that it is ending and I get sad again.
Great video! I re-watched this after buying some land in the area. It confirms our decision to live in this beautiful part of Canada. I miss the Rick Mercer Report, especially during these trying COVID days. I need a good shot of humour to help me through. Please Rick, do a new comedy series, a CBC special, release a song 🙂...anything. Thanks.
@ 4:25 LOL...Again Bravo everyone involved in this episode! Absolutely amazing how this all happens and getting the sheep in the boats and they just do it like it's Meh (no pun intended)....LOL.
Sheep. So innocent, so docile. Only to end their days with a bolt gun to their heads and throats slit. For what? Nothing we actually need. Nothing but the pleasure of their dead body. Since we absolutely can live happy, healthy lives without harming others.....why wouldn't we? Peace.
Does the phrase"Rack of Lamb" rings any bells? 9 chances out of ten, you own something made out of sheep's wool! Would you rather they be skinned alive?
I know how to read labels and use this skill when I buy clothing etc. Since in this modern world we live in there are alternatives to wool and we don't need to eat animals or their products I will repeat, we can absolutely live happy, healthy lives without harming others....why wouldn't we?
Newfoundland and Labrador what a beautiful place,love it here in Newfoundland❤❤❤❤❤❤

Cheers ~ I live in the city now but I always love watching these shows (especially with Rick) because it makes me think of home out east.

Well, looks like you're in deep sheep.

All Canadians need to visit the east coast. Fantastic people and a true gem for a vacation.

Wow, love Rick Mercer and my friend in Toronto loves him too.

Awesome segment Rick, thank you on behalf of Canada's sheep industry!! - The Canadian Sheep Federation.
Fun fact: there's ruins and old cannons and such from an old british naval fort on the island too.
LOL!! Pre-salted lamb :-)
We all want to meet Rick's parents on the last year of the RMR . I bet the are some cool NFLDers
I met one, and he is.
Bys are best kind, definitely raised a top notch comedian!
Beautiful scenery & great photography!

I was in Saint John's, and I should have gone to Raymond's :(
Please, don't go......
Can anyone please help me figure out the name of the opening theme music? Thanks a lot!
The vid title brought a very different image to mind.
They need a lesson in blocking up boats. (1:23)
i wouldn't be standing too close to it as is
never seen one fall over yet
I'm sure they knew what they were doing, they've been at it for hundreds of years!
Wind can be blowin a gale and those boats will still stand. Never seen one fall.

my you must be charming to dine with
factory farming sure but but local herds like this no
Why? Because I embrace a compassionate and peace loving lifestyle?
