Mississauga (Feb 13) – Annual licence plate renewals will soon become a thing of the past in Ontario.

Premier Doug Ford revealed the change at a press conference which announced legislation that will require any government to hold a referendum before introducing a provincial carbon tax.

The Ford government eliminated the $120 licence plate registration fee in 2022.

That announcement could sooner as Sarkaria has a press conference scheduled in Kitchener tomorrow morning.
