Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin has made no secret of her opinion on Canadian public health care. But she's scheduled to speak at a fundraiser for a hospital and cancer center in Canada.
ThinkProgress points out that St. Peter's Hospital is public, performs abortions, and offers end-of-life decision support.
Organizers hope to sell 1,000 tickets at $200 a plate, but raise more via photos with Palin.
When approached recently by a Canadian comedian pretending to be a conservative, Palin gave her opinion on Canadian health care:
"Keep the faith" Palin said, "because common sense conservatism can be plugged in there in Canada too. In fact, Canada needs to reform its health care system and let the private sector take over some of what the government has absorbed."
