Boldly go ahead, doodlers: bank says ‘Spocking’ Laurier on $5 not illegal - National | Globalnews.ca

OTTAWA – It turns out there’s not a lot of logic in the belief that it’s against the law to Vulcanize Wilfrid Laurier’s likeness on the $5 bill.

The death of Leonard Nimoy last week inspired people to post photos of marked-up banknotes on social media that show the former prime minister transformed to look like Spock, Nimoy’s famous Star Trek character.

Link to the changes.

That's hilarious. It's good that Laurier has a sense of humor, too. The US doesn't have any living people on their currency, do they? That's probably for the best. lol.
