TORONTO — A government committee is being told to take another look at its decision to deny a southern Ontario minister the right to renew her vanity plates.
Joanne Sorrill, a United Church minister in Whitby, Ont., was told she would have to change the letters on her personalized licence plates, “REV JO,” which she has used for nearly 20 years.
Ontario's Personalized Licence Plate Review Committee decided the “REV JO” plates “could be perceived to denote speeding or racing.”
Transportation Minister Jim Bradley, however, said he wants the committee to review its decision.
Mr. Bradley said trying to determine which letter and number combinations on personalized plates are acceptable is an inexact process, and perhaps the committee did not strike the right balance this time.
Ms. Sorrill had said the decision to deny her the use of the “REV JO” plates was “political correctness to the extreme.”
Personalized plates can be rejected for many reasons, including references to drugs, alcohol, religion, sex, racism, violence and profanity.
