Compare this, of course, to the Prime Minister or Olivia Chow. Both have accounts on Facebook but unlike Dion, they've used it quite successfully to get their message out/network with mainly young Canadians who are attracted to the site.

If it were a live comment during a scrum or something, the humourously awful wording would be understandable, but why on earth didn't Dion and his handlers rehearse the speech before they released it? Perhaps the Liberals' fundraising is going so badly, they could only afford one take. :) What’s baffling about this is that it’s pre-recorded.
