Winnipeg Star Trek fan’s 'ASIMIL8' licence plate deemed offensive


Assimilated by the PC collective! Took only two complaints, no appeal.

Manitoba Public Insurance has revoked a Star Trek fan’s personalized licence plate after receiving complaints that its message — ASIMIL8 — is offensive to indigenous people.

Nick Troller has been driving around with the plate for two years.

It’s held within a Star Trek licence frame that also bears the quotes, “We are the Borg,” and “Resistance is Futile.”
