Mercier co-sponsored an unsuccessful motion of no confidence against the prime minister, Jacques-Édouard Alexis, in February 2008.[2]

During a meeting of the parliament on April 1, 2008, Mercier's handgun discharged and wounded a clerk, Antonio Celestin.[1] Mercier was arguing with a fellow member of parliament who had accused him of corruption when the weapon fired and struck the clerk in the shoulder.[1][3] Mercier claimed the gun fell and accidentally discharged when he bent down to pick it up.[1] Reporters who witnessed the event stated that Mercier had been brandishing the gun during the debate, and it fired after he was bumped from behind.[1] Other legislators accused Mercier of intentionally firing the weapon.[1]
