Sarah Palin coming to my hometown in April

Sarah Palin is coming to Hamilton, Ontario this spring. Brian Lilley has the scoop on the imaginary “controversy”:

Left-wing writers are delighting in the fact that Palin has agreed to raise money for a socialist abortion-providing hospital and point to this as proof that she’s a hypocrite. (…)

Palin has agreed to speak at a fundraising event in Hamilton on April 15, 2010 to raise money for St. Peter’s Hospital and the Juravinski Cancer Centre. Are both of these facilities part of Canada’s public health care system? Yes they are, we don’t have much choice here, there is one private hospital in all of Ontario, and even that is part of the public system. Does St. Peter’s or the JCC provide abortions? Not quite.
