Ontario is scrapping vehicle license plate renewal fees and the requirement for drivers to have a licence plate sticker effective March 13.
Premier Doug Ford said the government will also be introducing red tape legislation that will allow Ontario to issue refunds to people who have renewed their licence plate stickers since March 2020.
This will apply to all passenger vehicles, light duty trucks, motorcycles and mopeds.
Currently, renewal fees stand at $120 a year for passenger vehicles in southern Ontario, and $60 in the North.
Ford says it’s $1 billion that is going back into the economy and will still benefit the province because it will create a broader tax base.
