I went to the mint myself and asked them about the visit. The guide I had was on his day off the day Rick came but he said that everyone was so flustered because they didn't know how to react to Rick stealing the gold. And apparently that is actually the Mint's stapler. Nice Rick! :P
Not everything has to be serious. Rick did a great job of adding a little humour to the educational aspect of the show. Most of it isn't "childish behaviour", he makes a lot of intelligent jokes that many Canadians can understand and relate to.
@@jasperhenry6561 they’re not RCMP. Those are RCM protective security officers. The uniforms they’re wearing in this video is old-now days they wear black uniforms with MOLLE body armour and it says “RCM-MRC”. They’re public agents, not police.
The thing I find so funny is that if there was a show like this in America it would be shut down in .05 seconds XD I'm glad that they're understanding it's all good fun.
I remember being in like 9th grade watching This Hour has 22 minutes. He's been a hero to me for years.. and when I found out he was gay.. I actually put him on a pedestal. He's so smart and articulate. I understand he didn't graduate highschool but he's proof positive that true smarts comes from self realization and paying attention to the world around you. Rick Mercer I think I love you. hahah love always joey
Poor Rod, it looked as if he really could have used a drink after your visit, or maybe it should have been before your visit. :) Most awesome show around - you're the best Rick!
Mr Thompson Graham is very transparent, calm, ever ready to teach anyone how to trade, his brokers are the best of all and my advice to everyone is to invest in *BITCOIN* especially now that cryptos are much more upgraded
You're right, my mistake. Well, you're mostly right. The RCMP provides liited services to those areas too, but they do have their provincial police forces as well. That was my mistake, I apologize for my misgiven information.
@UtoPluc Then you should know that its really not called UNC quality loon, its actually called BU, Brillient uncirculated meaning it has retained its mint condition with most of its luster. You make BU coins for collectors right?
@UtoPluc Like i said double strike on gold coins, The RCM makes pure gold coin, and gold without an alloy is softer then most metals so 1 time is usually enough. But what some Coin minting company will do is double stamp which means there making the coin proof which has more details then our own circulated set. They make proof coins specially for numismatics people like me. I collect anything from canadian coins to coins from USSR,Nazi Germany,Poland, Yugoslavia, Switzerland, Britain.
My Reddit account is worth $600m in gold, plus my zampukto(Freindzone Zakura) is worth $420 million and then you got my bitcoin acoount which is worth $69 million. Basically what I am trying to say is that i'm worth more than the Canadian mint and compared to my unfathomable wealth, it is finite and insignificant. Oh yeah and my future 2015 golden fedora which will be mine and will be made out of Fort Knox.
Redditor checking in! If you think this is a lot of gold, check my reddit account! - Jerrywinkle Fedor, reddit luminary and reddit gold user. PS 420 blaze it (only reddit users will get this *dank* meme heh). EDIT: Thanks for le gold kind stranger!
The employees would genuinely freak out with that behavior if it was West Point. Every employee is personally responsible for every gram of gold in their area, and no-one is allowed to leave if they are short.

I love how high strung that dude giving him the tour is.
That's why they hired him! 😁
Ha! He's killin' it! 😅
"no no no actually rick no please no, oh shoot."
haha its funny how everyone looks genuinely upset and stressed every time mercer jokingly puts a piece of gold in his pocket/mouth/etc
Yeah probably toxic chemicals
He's such a bad boy can't believe he's gay
@@marioiacolucci what?
@@brownbear1657 my brother told me he’s gay
@@brownbear1657 thats what
I wish he could be brought back to keep doing this across Canada. These shows are amazing.
Never gets old, love re-watching Rick to this day.

haha, i love how he always interacts with the security guard
How much do they make
@@marioiacolucci they are RCMP officers, so it depends on rank.

aquoslover200 i am surprised they let him touch that gold cathode powder lol he went crazy yeah in us it would total shutdown.
@@videosuperhighway7655not really if Fox News did it highly doubt you’ll ever see this comment
"Not my pants! They issued me these pants!" That's classic.
Ricks not allowed there anymore I dont think
cause he tried to steal gold!
Daniel Olfert pineapple Apple pen
I don't think so
Hahahah, he sure had them on edge.

Your sense of humour makes me laugh even though I’m in terrible pain, thank you! 🇨🇦❤️🙏🏻🙏🏾🙏🏻🥰
Poor Rod, it looked as if he really could have used a drink after your visit, or maybe it should have been before your visit. :)
Most awesome show around - you're the best Rick!
Man i was laughing through the whole thing!
I like this one too funny!
Rick aged every employee by a year every time he touched something.
I always watched Gold Rush. Cool show.
Schnobel
You can tell by the comments who actually watches the Rick Mercer Report and who just clicked on this because it has to do with gold.
What about both
Oh my gosh ahahaha, He's just the cutest. One day I wish to go on a tour with this man!
One of my favourite RMR segments ever. Making security guards angry gets a thumbs up from me!
can't get enough of your videos
This guy's funny, we need more
Canadians are so nice!!
fuckin eh we are
😉👍 that was absolutely brillant funny and interesting at the same time , well done.
Love this guy. Went to the mint today to see what Rick saw.
“That’s $420,000? That’s about as much as General Motors loses each week.”😂😂
They seemed genuinely concerned LMAO
Mr Thompson Graham is very transparent, calm, ever ready to teach anyone how to trade, his brokers are the best of all and my advice to everyone is to invest in *BITCOIN* especially now that cryptos are much more upgraded
I think 🤔 I'm blessed 🙏 cause not, wouldn't have met someone who is as transparent, expert as Mr Thompson Graham... Lol 😂
wow! I'm shock, someone mentioned and recommend expert Mr Thompson Graham, i thought i trade with him all alone lol 😂
@@ruthalbeth7776 You don't have to, I'm also a huge beneficiary of expert Mr Thompson Graham
wow! still overwhelmed how i made my first withdrawal earlier today trading with expert Mr Thompson Graham
@@janetanthony5837 Indeed he's an expert!
"look over there!"
lolz
Rick is hilarious! everyone knows hes just pretending to steal the money just out of fun! He means so harm!
240p WELCOME TO 10 YEARS AGO
This is one my favourite segments he has done...too funny.
what you probably are looking for is at 2:40
Why do the hand oils make them rejects? Couldn’t they just clean the discs? Also, why not just have him wear gloves?
Awesome!
I would love a small sample of gold cathode.
Awesome insight.. well humoured!
Rick is just an economic disaster
AYE Y'ALL ITS BQ CHECKIN IN FROM REDDIT. IM TOP MOD OVA AT /R/STREETSMARTS. ALL I GOTTA SAY IS SHIDDDD GIVE ME DA GOLD! I NEED DA GOLD!
BQ SIGNING OUT
He is freaking these people out
pfft i rather have gold on my legend of leaguer account than useless shiny rock, too bad im stuck in bronze elo hell, gg
That was hilarious...he just had to touch everything!
Yes. The RCMP is the only police organisation in Canada with any jurisdiction.
This guy reminds me of Norm McDonald
Wow this is hilarous! The guy was sooo nervous haha.
I miss the Mercer Report.
Me too.
hearing a taser crackle in the background would have given us one of Ricks famous true scared faces. too funny.
Yesterday, I went to the Royal Canadian Mint, but I don't know why I wasn't allowed to take pictures in the Royal Canadian Mint ?
Has anyone noticed that at least once in each of his interviews, he says "eh?" Truly Canadian!
stitcher64 gold bAAAr
True East Canadian accent
I died laughing when he put that piece of gold cathode in his mouth. 😂😂😂😂 I had tears in my eyes
He's hungry
That must be French cuisine. 500 dollars for just a serving. Lol
6:27 did he get to keep the coin with his face on it?
love this guy
What a great funny tour :)
Ahh Canadians, never change
That was pretty damn funny :)
Nice meme! (Only 90's kids get this reference)

So, SO funny!
Holy moly
lol omg he made them so nervous and freak out so much. When he ate the gold, HAHAH priceless
This episode is the reason why there's no more "Rick at the Royal Canadian Mint".
I'm surprised the coins didn't say ''sorry''! (Reddit inside meme) XD.

@CrotalusKid1 Your right, care to compare deficits while we are at it also? Oh sorry forgot the clock in NYC ran out of space.
2:17 there is no hope of me ever owning a gold bar that pure.
Must suck
Funny how this was when gold was decreasing to its lowest price in more than a decade.
it so so funny. love it so so much
The silver part.The center is made with actual gold for that version :P
hilarious i gotta watch rick mercer a bit more often
"This is where everybody from the have provinces store their gold"
You're right, my mistake. Well, you're mostly right. The RCMP provides liited services to those areas too, but they do have their provincial police forces as well. That was my mistake, I apologize for my misgiven information.
Rick kept them busy with the gold nut actually stole the Palladium!
welcome to otuwa
like a kid in a candy store that was great! haha!
He's hilarious here!
a thousand each !
it's now 3000 ... hard to print gold
LOL.... "200,000$ put that back"
Hahah they were clearly getting pretty frustrated with Rick by the end.
@UtoPluc Then you should know that its really not called UNC quality loon, its actually called BU, Brillient uncirculated meaning it has retained its mint condition with most of its luster. You make BU coins for collectors right?
🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Attention, ladies and gentlemen, a short announcement...
*REDDIT*
That is all.
Yep he says
If Rick had to be "metal free" how did they get the camera inside?
@UtoPluc Like i said double strike on gold coins, The RCM makes pure gold coin, and gold without an alloy is softer then most metals so 1 time is usually enough.

I feel Rick got permanently banned from the Mint after he put pure gold in his mouth.
My Reddit account is worth $600m in gold, plus my zampukto(Freindzone Zakura) is worth $420 million and then you got my bitcoin acoount which is worth $69 million.

Oh yeah and my future 2015 golden fedora which will be mine and will be made out of Fort Knox.
That was a 1 ounce silver bar. That probably wasn't pressed yet (it was blank)
Like a hyper young kid, doesn't listen, touches everything, specifically tries to steal infront of authority. Hilarious!
I would pee my pants being around that much gold.
@UtoPluc I do have a question though, how many 50 cent pieces where minted BU in Canada in year 2010?
Search "Money as Debt" on youtube and watch the documentary. It will answer your questions and is something everyone should see...
now we from Bashkirya very jealous that we don't have Rick Mercer in Bashkirya.
You got VERY nervous, didn't ya? Ya, this fellow here, he freaked!

Quimquat please be silent in the presence of a scientist like jerrywinkle. he has done more for science and atheism than you could ever understand.
*gifts gold* Gold train coming through!
what the fuck is wrong with you
that's the whole point. He's being goofy on purpose.
Just for context that gold is now 2.25 more expensive today!
In Ottawa? Should of been the Royal Canadian Mint in Winnipeg.
The employees would genuinely freak out with that behavior if it was West Point. Every employee is personally responsible for every gram of gold in their area, and no-one is allowed to leave if they are short.
Why did they take him off air
Whoa, Rick has glasses?
i love how he trys to steal the gold
