À propos de cet audio
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."

What is Rick Mercer going to do now? That was the question on everyone's lips when the beloved comedian retired his hugely successful TV show after 15 seasons - and at the peak of its popularity. The answer came not long after, when he roared back in a new role as stand-up-comedian, playing to sold-out houses wherever he appeared. And then COVID-19 struck. And his legions of fans began asking again: What is Rick Mercer going to do now? Well, for one thing, he's been writing a comic masterpiece.

Who could forget the sexy "Cherry Pie" girl from hair metal band Warrant's infamous music video? Bobbie Brown became a bona fide vixen for her playful role as the object of lead singer Jani Lane's desires. With her windblown peroxide mane, seductive scarlet lips, and flirtatious curves, she epitomized every man's fantasy.

Histoire
The first story Selma Blair Beitner ever heard about herself is that she was a mean, mean baby. With her mouth pulled in a perpetual snarl and a head so furry it had to be rubbed to make way for her forehead, Selma spent years living up to her terrible reputation: biting her sisters, lying spontaneously, getting drunk from Passover wine at the age of seven, and behaving dramatically so that she would be the center of attention. In a memoir that is as wildly funny as it is emotionally shattering, Blair tells the captivating story of growing up and finding her truth.

In 1975 Andrew took a shy new boy at school under his wing. They instantly hit it off, and their boyhood escapades at Bushy Meads School built a bond that was never broken. The duo found themselves riding an astonishing roller coaster of success, taking them all over the world. They made and broke iconic records, they were treated like gods, but they stayed true to their friendship and ultimately to themselves. It was a party that seemed as if it would never end. And then it did, in front of tens of thousands of tearful fans at Wembley Stadium in 1986.

"Bunny told me there were secrets about me that she would take to the grave, secrets that no one would ever hear, including me...." Tom Wilson always felt something wasn't quite right. His parents, Bunny and George, were much older than other kids' parents. There were no baby photos of him in the house. At school, classmates called him Indian, despite his parents' Irish-Quebecois background. And as he got older, friends, lovers and even family members remarked on his uncanny resemblance to Bunny's closest relative, her niece Janie Lazare....

Histoire
"Unvarnished. Funny. Leaving no stone unturned"...So say the publishers about this audiobook I've written. What I say is that this is the story of my life, told as clear as a Texas sky and in the same rhythm that I lived it. It's a story of restlessness and the purity of the moment and living right. Of my childhood in Abbott, Texas, to the Pacific Northwest, from Nashville to Hawaii, and all the way back again. Of selling vacuum cleaners and encyclopedias while hosting radio shows and writing song after song, hoping to strike gold.

Laura Dern and Diane Ladd always had a close relationship, but the stakes were raised when Diane developed a sudden life-threatening illness. Diane’s doctor prescribed long walks to build back her lung capacity. The exertion was challenging, and Laura soon learned the best way to distract her mom was to get her talking and telling stories. Their conversations along the way began to break down the traditional barriers between mothers and daughters.

Histoire
Rick Mercer can always be relied on to provoke a strong reaction - but what he said one fall day in 2017 truly shocked Canada. In a rant posted on social media, the great Canadian satirist announced loud and clear that the 15th season of the Rick Mercer Report - the nation's best-watched and best-loved comedy show - would be the last. This volume brings together never-before-published rants from the last five seasons of the show, plus a selection of the very best rants from earlier years.

I loved this more than I expected.
I'm a huge fan of Mike Myers. I grew up on his comedy, watching Wayne's World, and Austin Powers as a kid. I was always proud that he was a fellow Canuck. I knew as I purchased this book, that I would enjoy it
I've been struggling with my relationship to Canada as an first nations woman in a remote community. Canada is not always kind to the first Nations people here, but this book reminded me of all things that I love about Canada, and the vastly diverse population that calls this place home. This book was incredibly relatable, and it was nice to see another side to a comedian I've grown up worshipping. I couldn't really relate to the Toronto-specific anecdotes, as I'm from just west of "None-of-it", but so much of the stories about street hockey and the Canadian accent and slang reminded me that even thousands of kilometers away, there are little Canucks out there experiencing the same Canadian winter fun we all did ❤️
Will definitely be a repeat listen in my library, and have already recommended it to three people so far!

A clearer picture of Mike and Canada
having moved to Canada in 2016, it is nice to have a bit more background on the country in which I now live. I'll probably give this several more listens, since I may want to apply for citizenship at some point. there are many historical facts mentioned, which will likely be useful.

Thank you Mike Myers!
You're portrayal of Canada made me cry a few times. It was the first I've cried since my Father died late March 2020. Needless to say... he was not Walter Gretzky or your Father's calibre. This book tugged at my Canadian 'heart strings' a few times and made me laugh and smile.

Canada, eh?
As an American who resides in Canada for almost 40 years now...I too grew up and took flight here in Canada during the time period Mike reminiscences of in this awesome, Canadian content, audio book! Thank you Mike for the nostalgic and heartfelt recant of those years and of the many reasons i remained in Canada, married Canadian and have Canadian descendants of my own now....quite proudly! We came to Canada back in 1971 after my southern belle, from Virginia, mama met and married a Canadian WWII Veteran (my Step-Dad) who began to miss his homeland of Canada. I will never forget when he told us where we were moving to. He said “Canada...God’s Country”.
I am certainly a patriotic American with many family and friends to visit when I go back to my incredible, historic and arts cultured hometown...The City of Brotherly Love....home to the Eagles and Phillies.
However, my StepDad was right! Canada IS truly God’s Country
...to me too now!
I am so very grateful that he brought us here to Canada for many many reasons! Many of which Mike recounts in his truly proud Canadian and hilarious way.
Bravo Mike!
...an awesome listen and definitely something I will share about with many!

We don't say 'Eh' that much
I'm from Scarborough and the same age as Mike Myers. Many of his memories were the same as mine, except I don't recall such hero worshipping of Pierre Trudeau or Justin for that matter being so obvious in my neck of the woods, nd I consider myself a left leaning Conservative/right leaning Liberal. Overall a good listen and true on many other of his accounts and observations.

Well done Mike Myers, well done.
I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this book. I appreciated the knowledge & depth that you illustrated in Canadian history & in sharing your own history. I am proud to be Canadian everyday but a little more proud knowing that you are from Canada too & love it.
If you’re debating getting this book- just do it. You won’t regret listening to the witty & heart warming stories.

I didn’t know what to expect, but this was surprisingly thoughtful, insightful, and quietly funny. I’m not a fan per se, but I am Canadian, and grew up around the same time and place as Mike. This probably made the book even more enjoyable.
