Personalized license plates are a way to put a creative and customized spin on your car. Lorne Grabher from Nova Scotia put a personalized plate of his last name long long ago. But, recently the Canadian provincial government has changed its standing on this issue, and now the man is not allowed to renew his plate because it’s being recognized as insulting to women.
