Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird today promoted the role of digital diplomacy at an event at Foreign Affairs, Trade and Development Canada (DFATD) headquarters during which he discussed the importance of social media in diplomacy with Canadian diplomats, Ottawa-based foreign representatives and specialists in the field of digital technology. During the event the Minister announced the launch of a new @Canada Twitter handle that will aim to capture international audiences’ interest by offering a window into “everything Canadian” and content that goes beyond foreign policy, trade and development. “This new Twitter account will become the voice of Canada to the world on Twitter,” Baird said. “This is one more tool in our diplomatic toolkit as we promote Canada as a nation of strong values, rich culture, beautiful landscapes and a dynamic economy.” ow.ly/EWdCW
