The bad news is that your license plate renewal fee is going up.

In southern Ontario, it’ll jump from $108 to $120.

In the north, it rises from $54 to $60.

The good (all things are relative) news is that you can beat the pay hike if you renew by Sept. 1.

You can pre-renew it up to six months in advance, meaning if your plates coming due in February, you can get the lower price by renewing before next Thursday.

This applies to passenger and light commercial vehicles.

You’re welcome.
