Ignatieff accepts Rick Mercer debate offer – Canadian democracy in the social media age

Thanks Rick for adding your push to get the promised one-on-one harper Iggy debate (see below Twitter exchanges). And getting the youth (and Canadians of all ages) on Twitter interested and excited about the election.

@pmharper Why did you back out of your promise? Why are you afraid of questions from reporters?
