Congratulations, It's a . . . Cross-Border Incident! - Mark Steyn - The Corner on National Review Online

Congratulations, It's a . . . Cross-Border Incident! - Mark Steyn - The Corner on National Review Online:
"Here's the latest entry, from Hamilton, Ontario:

Hamilton's neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) was full when Ava Isabella Stinson was born 14 weeks premature at St. Joseph's Hospital Thursday at 12:24 p.m.

A provincewide search for an open NICU bed came up empty, leaving no choice but to send the two-pound, four-ounce preemie to Buffalo that evening.

Well, it would be unreasonable to expect Hamilton, a city of half-a-million people just down the road from Canada's largest city (Greater Toronto Area, 5.5 million) in the most densely populated part of Canada's most populous province (Ontario, 13 million people) to be able to offer the same level of neonatal care as Buffalo, a post-industrial ruin in steep population decline for half a century."
Read Mark Steyn's entire hilarious post. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll write your Senator to urge him oppose ObamaCare.
