Angel... That's just one small area of Canada. I was born here in 1964 and have traveled constantly and have only made a dent in seeing my country. So many beautiful places and most of it is untouched..
I've been in the co-pilot seat in a bi-plane before for a sight-seeing tour of the scenery in Maine, it's *so* cool being in that position - and with such a spectacular view! I'd recommend to anyone to experience it at least once. :)
Breathtaking, I was treated on the similar itinerary by my daughter on New Years Day, we didn't get to land in the lake though!! Another great episode by RM!!
Wow Harbour Air Seaplanes - great scoop, getting RMR to come out & play. Posted this on FB 'SwiftsureYachtRace' - for years, you've been great supporters of this historic race.
Rick and the other pilot were both captains, they both had four stripes on they shoulders, but I guess to keep Rick from getting too excited the pilot just called him a First Officer, lol.
Back in the 90s I was lucky to be taken on a Glacier Air flight out of Squamish and my breath was taken away! Especially on the downhill takeoff run on the glacier...
Wonderful Vid !! Have flown Harbour Air many times when Coming Home on Leave , from Out of Country to visit Family on the Island before heading North .. Harbour Air is One of the Best !!.. Hmmm, lol ,, Not quite sure if Rick would be my " Pilot of Day " choice, but it sure would be interesting lol !!
Do people actually fly from Toronto to Ottawa or vice versa? Could probably drive between the two faster with wait times and preboarding at airports. Lol

#2 on my bucket list, get a ride in that Lancaster. Lucky me that beast flys over my house frequently. Damn well bring tears to my eyes and the sound of the merlins just give me goose bumps. #1 on my bucket list (a real tough one to crack), a ride on one of the flying mosquitos.My dad flew as the navigator in a recon mosquito. Trying hard to get his squadron number still.
+superskiier50 I didn't realize that. Above freezing is good. How did that old song go? You can't always get what you want. But get what you neeeeed. :?D
Flew with them from Vancouver to Victoria on our family holiday. Very professional and the scenery was breathtaking. Regards from England.
So have I. Fantastic little airline. They actually represent Canada very well. Laid back and friendly.
That’s amazing! I will have to consider them when I go visit. Was it expensive?
Awesome; a commuter and scenic flight all in one! Been on a few myself eh!
This pilot has the best job in the world. That's incredible.
Get your wings (pilot license) and take a hack at it :). Doesn't have to be that company either, there are many jobs like that around Vancouver!
instablaster...
LOL gotta love Rick, he's so funny! Canada is so beautiful!! :)

I love how the frame rate of the camera makes the propeller look like it's barely moving.

This one was great! 😂😂
Only Rick Mercer would do stuff like this.

This man did more for Canada than its Government ever could. From Utah, USA, we miss you Rick.
Lol. I’m your pilot. I thought he said I’m your pirate. Good one. It feels good to be Canadian. Our lives are in your hands Rick…..Eh!.
Awesome! Good job Rick!
Rick must miss the show between seasons!
We sure do!
Where does a guy get tickets for THIS commuter flight profile? Rick's job was the best on the Planet!
306 looked like Snoopy coming in ~ sweet
Very cool. :)
Eu quero trabalhar ai!!
Unbelievable.
Why Why Why do I live in Ontario....WHY and @ 5:23 WOW...
wow no rain, i'm shocked
It doesn't rain that much in the summer. The rest of the year though...
That would be so fun - cannonballing off the plane wing!
+osmia next thing on my list hopefully haha
4:16 not done this before? How about flying a DC3 at Buffalo 3 years earlier?
Do people actually fly from Toronto to Ottawa or vice versa? Could probably drive between the two faster with wait times and preboarding at airports. Lol
How would you go through the steps if you wanted to be a pilot for Harbour Air? Get your pilots licence of course....
Very helpful, thank you.
