'They work': Government stands by new Ontario licence plates despite apparent design flaw
The Ontario government is defending the design of its new licence plate a day after the Ford administration confirmed it was looking into reports that the plates are unreadable at night.

These new plates are hard to read during the day... I have a friend who has a new set and he mentioned that it's a glorified sticker. Thankfully they haven't changed the custom plate design yet, so I guess it's time for me to suck up the costs and just do it now.
Also I didn't realize they were redesigning the photo ID's... mine expires this year...

Not only will we forget about this and all of Doug Ford's other offenses, but we'll be steadfastly reminded by the media about that one time Bob Rae was premier and fucked over the entire human race.
I LOATHE our media. I LOATHE them and their blatant agendas.
The previous plates' adhesive flaw had been identified and resolved years ago, but of course they're going to shout "BUT THE LIBERALS!" when called-out on a fuckup. These people can never admit when they're at fault, on anything.
Reporters should hit the OPC with "why don't you believe police officers when they say this is a problem?" lol
"Blah, blah, blah, we have a very good relationship with the first responders of this province, and have heard nothing but good things about the new plates from them."
The Beaverton has been giving The Onion a run for its money. They don't hold back.
It was nice when they didn't work for the bunch of months leading up to the federal election. 🙂
Blame the stupid electoral system. Sixty percent of the electorate voted for parties other than the Conservatives. The NDP/Libs/Greens = 60%, and the Cons = 40%. Congratulations, our electoral system gives majority power to a party who the majority of the electorate despises (its the same breakdown on the National level too, actually a little more than 60% because you have to add the Bloc voters in as well). Yay, what a wonderful democratic system.

It just keeps getting better!

The dumb part of that statement is the fact that the Conservatives were in charge the last time Ontario license plates were redesigned.
I expect nothing better from this clown show government. Love this shit blowing up in his face after platitudes of cutting waste during the election.
Ontario government shifts blame for hard-to-read licence plates to the manufacturer
A day after insisting there’s nothing wrong with Ontario’s new double-blue licence plates, Premier Doug Ford’s government is now trying to shift blame to the manufacturer after complaints the plates are hard to read in the dark.

Now they're blaming 3M lol.

Conservatives, kurzgesagt.
Why does it seem as though the dumbest people in the world are the ones who hold the most power?
At least on this side of the world, anyway.
Man, Beaverton > Onion
They're just so on point when it comes to Canada.

You can take the canadian and american part of it, it's global. Idiots are electing con artists en masse.

I'm shocked Deco Labels didn't win the contract.
They broke photo radar too.
The worst part about this is, let's say 3m is responsible for the fuck up, the government still has to test it themselves and sign off on it not just accept what a contractor gives you. This still looks bad on them.Ontario government shifts blame for hard-to-read licence plates to the manufacturer

The party of fiscal responsibility and personal responsibility really loves to fuck over citizens and waste their tax dollars. Everyone should just laugh in the face of any right winger that ever tries to bring up that the right is fiscally conservative
They're unreadable at night. I don't really care if a government wants to change the plate design; it's happened many times before so whatever. But to approve a design with such an obvious and crippling (from a crime prevention POV) problem is inexcusable.
Just drove behind a car with one of these plates tonight. Could not see a damn thing on the plate despite being pretty close behind the other car. It wasn't until I was passing in the next lane that I could finally read it.
Yup, whoever OK'd this 100% did not test it in real world conditions, or they did test it and were just plain horrible at their job.

Hard-To-Read Licence Plates Still Better Than ‘Liberal’ Ones: Ontario Minister
The PC government is defending its licence plate redesign.
Those damn "Liberal" plates. You know, the ones that peel but also which issue got fixed and were being replaced for free.
Had not even thought about that. Yeah they are going to think it's fake or being done on purpose to hide a crime or some shit.
They don't keep up to date with what we do for designs. I know when I went to Vegas really soon after the purple id cards came out and I had one, places where I had to show it first didn't believe it was actual ID. I got questioned at bars and at the casinos.
Enhanced licence plate in development, Ford government says after admitting visibility issues
A day after admitting that Ontario’s new licence plates are plagued by visibility issues, the Ford government says an enhanced plate is currently being developed and should be available in “less than three weeks.” “We have heard the concerns of Ontarians and have taken their feedback seriously...

~183K defective plates need to be replaced? So glad we have such a "fiscally responsible" government. 😆 💸
Also, how the fuck are there so many already?
That's reassuring to hear. It's good to see that, unlike in the US, once Ford started doing terrible things, it actually changed people's minds here, rather than making them double down, because they couldn't admit they were wrong.
Well, he's the white male of the group. That means he has the "electability" advantage. <rolls eyes>
Meanwhile, the ghost of spooky Bob Rae continues to haunt the NDP.
I saw these plates the other day and nothing was legible. I thought it was some novelty plate or something from the US. Ford is a scumbag, what a waste of money.
