A bit late, but for those who aren’t aware, the small town of Vulcan, Alberta, has long embraced its connection to the franchise. A gigantic model, Trek themed uniforms for the town council, fairs and parades - nothing seems to be too much for this cheerful town of unabashed fans.

Conan O’Brien may have goggled to hear of it, but at this point it’s a point of multigenerational identity and civic pride.

I thought folks here might welcome a local take. (And I was myself taken aback by the local news site’s name ‘Chat News Today.’)
