The CBC reports that Dave Assman, who pronounces his last name as “Oss-men,” has been prohibited from putting his last name on his license plate — and he’s determined to fight the ban. “It’s my last name. I’ve always had it,” the Saskatchewan resident told the CBC. “I’m not ashamed of it. There’s nothing bad about it.” For Assman, his name carries a proud legacy. His great-grandfather, an Assman himself, would help other farmers during hard times. https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/man...denied-last-name-cause-offense-110250548.html
