|

One of the Sun writers did a story about the slogans on licence plates and how boring they were. He asked people to suggest some. Here are some snips.
http://www.edmontonsun.com/News/Columnists/Jenkinson_Michael/2005/07/25/1146455.html
James Alexander submitted a bunch of great licence plate slogans including "The Potato Alcatraz" for P.E.I. and this one for Nunavut: "No Roads. No Cars. No Plates. No Slogan."
Gordon Neufeld played off New Hampshire's "Live Free or Die" by suggesting for Ontario "Vote Liberal or Die." Ontario resident Greg Hamilton suggested his province adopt "We Put the 'Duh' in Canada." Darren Sutor suggested "Your Votes Don't Matter."
Saskatchewan resident (I repeat: SASKATCHEWAN RESIDENT! Don't get mad at me!) Susan Adam offered up "Scratch Your Bum in Saskatchewan." By way of explanation, she said, "Note the slogan sounds like Saskatchewan."
Saskatoonian Ken Gryschuk played off the fact that his province doesn't adopt daylight time and gave me "Saskatchewan - Where Nothing Changes, Not Even Time!"
Beejay Saunders offered up for Quebec "Millions of Frenchmen Can't Be Right." Andrew Boffin suggested, "United We Whine, Divided We Still Want the Passport!"
Manitoban Ron Campbell submitted a whack of slogans for his province, including "Where Summer Says Bite Me" and "Just Say No to Bugs."
Travis Chase of Calgary suggested P.E.I.'s slogan be "Boring You With Anne of Green Gables Since 1908." Pat Marrick submitted the very creative "Potatoes Every Inch."
Gord Walford of Ontario offered this very clever slogan for Newfoundland & Labrador: "More Than Just Big Dogs." Think about it. It'll come to you. Gord also came up with this for Saskatchewan: "Dream of Fields."
And to prove that Albertans have a sense of humour about themselves, suggestions for new slogans for our plates included "We're Not Mad, but Our Cows Are" (T. McLaughlin), "Land of the Rig Pigs" (M. Bertram), "Rich Witch of the West" (Lou Carlson), "White and Uptight" (James Alexander) |

The coolest licence plate I think I ever saw came attached to a Shelby Mustang that was in m-i-n-t condition. This was basically a race car with licence plates. Not exactly a provincial slogan but still a personal statement of some worth. His licence plate on the fastest car around at the time >>>
HO HUM
