Ontario to offer licence plate to show support for Canadian Forces
TORONTO - Motorists in Ontario are being given a new way to show their support for the Canadian Forces.
Special licence plates featuring the Yellow Ribbon - Support Our Troops logo will be available starting Feb. 1, 2010.
They can be ordered through select ServiceOntario locations and driver and vehicle licence issuing offices across the province.
A portion of the proceeds from the sale of the licence plates will go to the Canadian Forces Personnel Assistance Fund.
It helps current and former members of the Canadian military and their immediate families.
There is already a veteran's plate, which features a poppy in honour of those who have served or are currently serving in the Canadian Armed Forces.
