For Cinema Canada magazine, critic John Harkness wrote of her performance in Unfinished Business that "If this were a country with any sort of rational production/distribution/publicity system, a performance like this would mean that she would immediately be talked about in Hollywood - Mejias has star quality like you wouldn't believe."[3]
She subsequently starred in the films Blue Line,[4] Meatballs III: Summer Job,[5] Higher Education,[6] State Park, The Midday Sun[7] and Scanners II: The New Order.[8] She also starred in the television miniseries Echoes in the Darkness,[9] and had supporting or guest appearances in the television series Philip Marlowe, Private Eye, The Edison Twins, Night Heat, Street Legal and Danger Bay.
