Canadians Spock Their Bills

Canadians leave their tribute to the "Star Trek" legend on the face of Canadian currency.


In other words, Canadians are sketching a Spock-style bowl haircut with pointed 1960s sideburns over the mostly hairless pate of Sir Wilfrid Laurier, who was prime minister of Canada from 1896 to 1911.

Laurier's face adorns the $5 bill, the lowest denomination of Canadian paper currency. With a bit of scribbling, he does sort of resemble Nimoy, the oxymoronic author of two autobiographies: "I Am Not Spock" and "I Am Spock."
