You paid for a service before and today you get less of a service but costs more money. Hmmm all that money saved should be shown in reduced fees for registration and licence renewal.
If your one of those who thinks that is a bad idea then you must make more money then the rest of us and spend it foolishly.

So because I no longer receive a redundant letter to tell me when to renew my license/reg and really couldn't give a rats ass about it....that somehow relates to "I must make more money than anyone and spend it foolishly"..

Huh. Wow, small things sure are difficult for a lot of people on here.

"Wahhhh....the gub'ment won't remind me when to look after my own responsibilities...wahhh....wahhh...we must do something about this. The gub'ment is saving a postage stamp on me...I want' more from them in return. The gub'ment is screwing me. The gub'ment must go....the gub'ment, the gub'ment.....


Wow.

Ahhh - it wasn't a redundant letter. It was your actual registration paperwork. Some seem to be struggling with the concept that it's not about mailing your registration/invoice, it's about changing the program and not letting the people know. Sheesh.

Went through a check stop in Didsbury on Thursday. While one officer was talking to the drivers there was another officer checking plates. With a nod of the head from the plate checker people were allowed to continue.

Friendly reminder of this topic everyone, they almost got me this month. I've been watching for my registration paperwork in the mail and then luckily had a chat with family, who told me of the change.

How in the heck do you associate less government involvement in your life with socialism?

It's a great move. Government shouldn't have to mother adults on tax payer dime.

You screwed up and want to blame somebody else, that's human nature. I am no fan of Rachael the Red but taking work away from Canada Post makes me happy.
