American conservative is forced into Canadian single payer health care. Hilarity ensues.

15. The author, an opponent of reproductive rights, also makes a good point about abortion.

She's still uncomfortable with publicly funded abortion. She realizes, though, that many abortions in the U.S. occur because a pregnant woman decides she can't handle the medical expenses associated with carrying to term (including all the health care the child would need for the next 18 years or whatever). In Canada, those expenses (including excellent pre-natal care) would be covered.

Although the Canadian system funds abortions, the abortion rate is significantly lower than that in the U.S.

We could tell the fundies here that their opposition to single-payer is helping to kill millions of babies every year, to throw their own terminology back in their faces.
