Ontario Canada finally did away with them.
Lots of people decry the loss of government revenue, but I’m happy to see some red tape/bureaucracy cut down for the consumer. I thought governments only did that for big business.
Would have made more sense to just increase gas tax by 0.1 cents/litre.
Tho you’re still supposed to register for free online every year or two, which I’m sure 90% of the population is going to forget to do.
- notatoad 3y ago>decry the loss of government revenue you got rid of the registration stickers and the fees? in alberta they got rid of the stickers, but kept the annual fees. and the private contractors who collect those fees.
- Scoundreller 3y ago> you got rid of the registration stickers and the fees? Correct. (Though I always wondered why they just didn’t make the insurance companies send the stickers, or eu style where you put your insurance slip in a little window packet)
- zht 3y agoincrease gas tax? from the government that spent a bunch of money printing stickers decrying gas taxes, forcing private businesses to use them, and then defending the practice in court before having it struck down as unconstitutional?
- Scoundreller 3y agoThey really are many law firms’ best friend.
