They look a lot nicer than the flimsy paper ones from before lol
A very important thing that is missing from these and modern ID cards is "preferred name" because there are so many people who at best ignore and at worst get irate when they are called by their legal first name in every new interaction yet don't bother to change it.
I'm not talking about all the "John Richards" out there who are called "Jack" or "Dick" by their loved ones who have bene given permiasion to use those common nicknames, I'm talking about the obstinate ones -- although having a preferred name would definitely accommodate them as well.
The orange one looks the most Manitoban.
Yeah. At least use our provincial symbol. Saskatchewan is the land of the living skies, and North West Territories & Nunavut share the polar bear. Let them have the aurora and polar bear.
Edit: nevermind about the bear. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/polar-bear-official-emblem-manitoba-1.6204962
