UPDATE: The Calgary Herald has a fuller, slightly different version of the quote: "My first five years of life we spent in Skagway, Alaska, right there by Whitehorse. Believe it or not – this was in the ‘60s – we used to hustle on over the border for health care that we would receive in Whitehorse. I remember my brother, he burned his ankle in some little kid accident thing and my parents had to put him on a train and rush him over to Whitehorse and I think, isn’t that kind of ironic now. Zooming over the border, getting health care from Canada."

“We used to hustle over the border for health care we received in Canada,” she said. “And I think now, isn’t that ironic.”

It’s ironic because now, Canadians “hustle over the border” to the US for health care.

What I figured. It’s ironic because Canada had health care *worth* “sneaking” over the border to get. Course you had to pay for it in those days, or your private insurance did.
