CTV says gov’t may end license stickers as a vote incentive

CTV says Monday night that it has learned that the PC government at Queen’s Park is pondering the end of license stickers as the 2022 provincial election approaches. It will cost the government money but presumably, there will also be a saving. CTV says a refund scheme is being considered for those who have recently renewed stickers.  The news raises the question of just what purpose the stickers were serving except as a source of income. Nor does the CTV story mention just how visual dating will be done without stickers. In the 1970s, yearly plates all carried the year of issue but longer do so.
