Rick Mercer to be Inducted into Canada’s Walk of Fame

Rick Mercer, a renowned satirist and comedian, is set to be inducted into Canada’s Walk of Fame, making him the second Newfoundlander to be featured after the late Gordon Pinsent. Mercer, known for his work as one of the creators and stars of This Hour Has 22 Minutes and his own show, The Rick Mercer Report, has been recognized for his entertainment and humanitarian efforts. He joins an illustrious class of inductees which includes Edmonton Oilers forward, Connor McDavid, former Supreme Court Justice, Rosalie Abella, and the “Degrassi” franchise. Mercer expressed his surprise and gratitude for the honor, recounting how he used to walk on the sidewalk in Toronto where the Walk of Fame is located every day to work without ever imagining that he would one day be featured.
