I never understood why, among other things, the City of Ottawa didn't just fine every vehicle the same way they'd fine any vehicle parked illegally in the roadway (or at an expired meter), with a new ticket every 12 or 24 hours. They could do this all after the fact, if they took photos of every license plate/vehicle daily, and just mail them a big stack of tickets. Looking at the list of fines, this could be seriously costly to those involved: https://ottawa.ca/en/parking-roads-and-travel/parking/regulations-and-restrictions#section-4d0650e2-15ba-49cf-89f3-e42292df34a6 https://ottawa.ca/en/parking-roads-and-travel/parking/regula... Park within 9 m of intersection $75 Park within 1.5 m of laneway $80 Park - prevent removal of previously parked vehicle $60 Park - prevent ingress to metered parking space $60 Park in no parking area $85 Park in excess of posted time limits $65 Park heavy vehicle on a highway $70 Park vehicle on highway - obstruct traffic $95 (There's more, these are obvious ones) These tickets/fines are linked to plate renewals, and my understanding is the fines can also be transferred from an inactive plate to another active plate with the same owner, so you can't just sell the car. About the only way around it is never licensing a vehicle in Ontario again.
