Big brother knows what you mean... you religious pervert!

What do these vanity licence plate "numbers" all have in common...

ILVJESUS, BLSSDX2, PSALM82, PROV 31, TR1N1T1, MATH 633, PRAISGOD, AVAMARIA and IWRK4GOD.

Answer: They were all refused -- not issued -- by the nannies in the Ontario Ministry of Transport. They're all objectionable, you see (don't you?) because they're religious.

And it's not just Christian references that are "0UTLAW3D". Also on the fecal roster are

FAUST666, LUC1F3R, HANUMAN, HOSANNA, FATIMA14, 1MUZZIE (eh?), SREEHARI, and BSMLLH.

Let it never be said that there's discrimination in Ontario!

But it's not just religious references that get rejected by the bureaucrats at the Kremlin. [Queen's Park, surely! Ed.] Your request can be refused if the combination of letters and numbers refers to: sexual meaning and eliminatory functions (like PIPICACA); violence/criminal activity (05 BUBBA ???); "human rights discrimination" (GONSYCHO); drugs/alcohol (JUSTRX, more ???) or if it contains "abusive/obscene language [or] derogatory slang" (C00N).

And if they don't get ya for any of those types of political incorrectness -- God forbid we should mention religion [Ooops! Ed.] -- there's the catch-all "clarity and readability", which the pencil-necks have used to ban BE4R, LE4F5, DBB88888, and 4Y (for why??!!).

The Toronto Star used a freedom of information request to get access to the MoT's database. Click here to see the complete list of 3315 no-nos, searchable by reason for rejection.

Footnote: Every now and then, a politically incorrect plate gets out to the public. Evidently there are no Ukrainian speakers at the Ontario MoT, for they allowed Agent 1's father to get XIMHO.
