Gentlemen – start your tape recorders. Stephane Dion will be on John Gormley Live at 9 am Sask time. Who knows what comedy gold may arise for the youtubing!
(If you miss it, 650 CKOM has archives.)
Update: Darcey grabbed it. (MP3)

Will it come with a translation from the Fringlish to something understandable by the rest of us?
hit his nut hizzy setting pry whorities.
no problem , CBCpravda will have a perfectly scripted version of in on the web in an hour. so letter perfect you will think it came from your grade 12 hinglish teacher.
Let me guess:
He’ll refer to “you people” a lot.
He’ll refer to “the rest of Canada”.
He’ll condescendingly refer to rural issues as if that’s the only thing you’re interested in.
He’ll flip around a lot, gasping for air, calling Harper ‘mean and divisive’.
Sweet! Got it… I need translation though heh heh
It must have been short, because I missed it!
Yeah, his sock puppet master, er, translator, must have been too busy.
He said and I quote “We want to reduce poverty by a terd”
Yuk!
Does anybody know what he was saying??
I have taught ESL to francophones for 20 years and can honestly say I have never heard any of them speaking like this. He should fire his English teacher (whose salary taxpayers are likely paying) or come equipped with an interpreter.
Absolutely cringe-worthy!
Tough to understand his ‘english’
maybe the wifey-poo is his hinglish teshur.
eet ees not izzy on a hopposition non-leeder’s income.
On the “Joan Beatty” subject, can anyone tell me whether or not Beatty has actually resigned her seat in the legislature or is she keeping that as an ace-in-the-hole when she gets her ass handed to her in the byelection?
Pretty anticlimactic for you cons I would say.
Funny, I had no trouble understanding what he said. Maybe it’s because I’m a liberal and have the usual intellectual advantage over cons.
I suppose if he had spoken in Canada’s other official language, none of you nitwits would have had a clue what was said.
How many of you speak two languages?
libforlife…that advantage you refer to would be that you don’t have to pay attention to what he says…he’ll change his mind on it anyway, or Iggy will come along to say ‘what he really meant’.
libforlife – Would YOU have understood him in the “other official language”? You know lib, out West here he have this querk about electing a citizen of a foreign country our Prime Minister. Call us unreasonable, call us childish – call us whatever but we just have this thing, you know?
But with your superior intellect we’re sure that you must have some illuminating reasons why one would elect a citizen of a foreign country as our Prime Minister. What do we “cons” know? Not being as intelligent and enlightened as you we resort to calling you “leftard”. I guess if the shoe fits…….
BTW – I would have understood every word had he chosen to speak in the “other official language”.
dion was completely understandable. i suppose it’s odd for many of kkkate’s readers to hear someone with a full set of teeth speak.
“I have taught ESL to francophones for 20 years ”
It’s creepy, isn’t it? He makes no progress. My ESL experience was only a few terms, but I noticed that my students made regular progress, and lot of them weren’t particularly gifted or even that interested.
BTW, for the usual attack about how many languages i might speak: I’m not claiming I deserve to be prime minister of the country.
Although, like, I so totally deserve it.
Libforlife: So, Dijon is your “reho”?
P.S. That is “hero” just in case your command of Fringlish isn’t up to snuff!!
“dion was completely understandable.”
I am also pleased to say that by the end of the term my students could capitalize appropriately.
Morningstar.
I do , but I am happy to say t’other one is neither Cree or French. so you can insult me in either and I wont understand.
Morgensterne
Thanks for that insightful comment, dddavidson. (as in duh, duh, davidson…harrumph, typing it makes it lose all of its kick).
Kate.
for the sake of the shutterbug with the stutter, could you put the link to the occupations of the posters here. I think you will find that most of us not only have teeth but quite straight ones too.
the better to bite a lefty with ma dear.
Hey – I’m still waiting to an answer to my Joan Beatty question. Did she or did she not resign her seat in the legislature when she was appointed to run for the Fiberals in the federal by-election? Surely a leftard from either the NDP or Liberal Party could inform me.
Davidson,
I am french and I cannot understand this guy very well. Dion’s accent is not typical of French Canadian and sounds more like that of a Parisian which would be foreign to most Canadians.
That’s is we could understand Cretien and not Dion.
Glad you can understand him but it speaks more to how you have listened to him not to how good is English is.
dapufferty label ride a turd heef hime haylaytud.
Stuffie aint hard to understand it’s just his usual liberal contentless stuff.
Jeff Davidson is the new Robert McClelland. I bet most hear understand what that means, eh?
Ist Morgensterne ein Sitzpinkler?
Jeffwie and all other lefturds….key cbc or ctv,really,it’s not that hard to do,c’est pas difficile.
Actually, I could understand what Dion was saying better than ever before.
That doesn’t change the fact that everything he said is pure BS.
Here in Winnipeg Friday morning, Dion told CJOB’s Richard Cloutier
“The Youth Criminal Justice Act has worked well, it just needs some improvements.”
I am not making this up.
He probably wants to reduce hunger by a turd too
