Mike Myers
Comedy superstar Mike Myers writes from the (true patriot) heart about his 53-year relationship with his beloved Canada. Mike Myers is a world-renowned actor, director and writer and the man behind some of the most memorable comic characters of our time. But, as he says, "No description of me is truly complete without saying I'm a Canadian". He has often winked and nodded to Canada in his outrageously accomplished body of work, but now he turns the spotlight full-beam on his homeland.
His hilarious and heartfelt new book is part memoir, part history, and pure entertainment. It is Mike Myers' funny and thoughtful analysis of what makes Canada Canada and Canadians Canadians and what being Canadian has always meant to him. His relationship with his home and native land continues to deepen and grow, he says. In fact American friends have actually accused him of enjoying being Canadian - and he's happy to plead guilty as charged.
A true patriot who happens to be an expatriate, Myers is in a unique position to explore Canada from within and without. With this, his first book, Mike brings his love for Canada to the fore at a time when the country is once again looking ahead with hope and national pride. Canada is a wholly subjective account of Mike's Canadian experience. Mike writes, "Some might say, 'Why didn't you include this or that?' I say there are 35 million stories waiting to be told in this country, and my book is only one of them."

Editorial Review
Most people know Myers from his leading roles in Austin Powers and Shrek. But in this audiobook, you’ll meet him as a true Canadian patriot born and raised in Scarborough, Ontario, and a die-hard Maple Leaf fan.
With his stars engraved on Canada’s Walk of Fame in Toronto and the Hollywood Walk of Fame, Myers is a household name in his beloved Canada and the US. Having lived in both, Myers takes you through the many differences between our two North American countries, with substantial doses of wit and humour thrown in. In a CBC interview, he recalls, “there’s nobody more Canadian than a Canadian who no longer lives in Canada.” In his audiobook debut, he proves exactly that.
Offering his takes on Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, Canadian history, ice hockey and our strong accents, the Emmy Award-winning actor leaves no stone of the Canadian experience unturned in this part memoir, part cultural journey
Narrated by Myers, Canada is an absolute must-listen for every Canadian and anyone else who would like a lighthearted, whimsical look at our nation and its history and culture.
