No Pontiacs in sight, but a few neat Buicks, Chevys, plus Ford, Mopar and even a Studebaker.

I agree ... after living 45 years in "front plate country" (ON.) I always envied my relatives in Quebec.
On PEI, no front plate, and only 5-digit plates.

Can't get rid of front plate.  All the spyware that photographs us (In ON) depends on it.  Better to tax us with.

Rented a car when I was in Ontario in May. My GPS kept sending me on route 407. I now understand this is an electronic toll route. Never once did I see a booth, but today I got the bills for my toll charges from the rental company. I prefer traditional toll booths like they had in Ohio when I was there.

I gather this system takes a picure of your plate. Just like in London UK; cars which drive in the downtown there have their plate numbers photographed and every day they have to electronically settle their accounts.

Front plates are law in Manitoba but I have made it 3 years without one on the wagon. I just can't bring my self to put it on.
