Canada’s Rick Mercer, the successful (openly gay) CBC host and comedian has a weekly show on Tuesdays. My favorite part of his shows are the Rants that he does, taking aim at politicians, society and anything that forces us to think. He’s one of my Gay Heroes and I would love for him to be Prime Minister.
This one talks about teen suicide of a gay kid:
“Every year in this country 300 kids take their own lives. It is a mind-boggling number. And this past week one of those kids was Jamie Hubley. He was 15, he was depressed and he happened to be gay.”
