And I know a lot of educated, or at leat well-informed, individuals such as most of us on here know where Mac is. I even know there's a UBC campus in Kelowna (UBC Okanagan I believe), but I just wish Hamilton would have been mentioned. It doesn't take much to add an 8-letter name in there; "First case of FAS ever in Canadian history discovered in Hamilton". If they took the time to mention 'Southwestern Ontario', why not just say Hamilton?
UPDATE:
They've revamped the article Hmmm

Alright... who emailed to bitch at them!?! hahaha |
I hear you. My personal pet peeve regarding Hamilton in the media is the appended "ON" after it always, as someone above already posted about. Jeepers, everyone knows where Hamilton is.
