*UPDATE CORRECTED DATE

Leonard Nimoy is heading to a very special place in the Great White North.  It seems that Spock is having a home coming of sorts in the small Alberta town of Vulcan.  March April 23rd is the arrival date and it looks like quite an event is in the works.

Shortly after, starting at around 3 p.m., Nimoy will be part of the parade, which will start at the Tourism and Trek Station and run down to the intersection on Centre Street and Third Avenue.
