Hey there, time traveller!

Talk about “fuelled by passion” — it took just eight days for fans to snap up all 20,000 available Winnipeg Jets licence plates, Manitoba Public Insurance said Wednesday.
But don’t despair: MPI has ordered an additional 5,000 of the $70 plates, with $30 going towards the Winnipeg Jets True North Foundation.
The plates will be available at Autopac agents beginning Friday, Dec. 23, MPI said. Due to staggered delivery dates throughout the province, customers should call ahead to confirm they’ve arrived.
You can purchase a plate for a friend, but both giver and recipient need “qualifying active” insurance policies, MPI said. Specialty plates can also be transferred to another customer as long as the new plate owner has a letter from the previous owner granting permission for the transfer.
Last word of advice? No sports mullets allowed. MPI said you can’t put a Bombers plate on one end of your vehicle and a Jets plate on the other. You can, however “change plates as the sporting seasons change.”
