The plates proved difficult to read in the dark onpoli

One of Ontario Premier Doug Ford's vehicles sits parked at the Ontario Legislature sporting a new licence plate in Toronto on Feb. 20, 2020.

TORONTO — Premier Doug Ford says he’s scrapping a redesign of Ontario’s licence plates, returning to the old, white-and-blue “Yours to Discover” version. New blue licence plates that the Progressive Conservative government rolled out this year using a slogan of “A Place to Grow” proved difficult to read in the dark.After the government and consumer services minister originally insisted the new plates were fine, the government acknowledged the problem and said manufacturer 3M would deliver an “enhanced” plate.

Ford says in a statement today that after thorough testing by law enforcement and other key stakeholders, Ontario is following their advice and won’t go ahead with the new plate for passenger vehicle use. Ontario licence plates will instead revert to the old design, and Ford says the issue that saw some plates start peeling has been resolved.

I see no issue with low income people going to public pools, parks, beeches, street festivals, amusement parks, camping grounds or conservation areas with social distancing measures in place. fordnation May 24 weekend is May 18 so open up trailer parks and allow us to go isolate on our own lots and enjoy the outdoors social distancing and of course with strict rules to follow and bring all you need from home and not attend grocery stores in cottage country And he is correct, if we can do porch pick up in Southern Ontario we can do it all over Ontario.
