Question:I'm a snowbird with a home in Florida. Can I buy a car for use down there and then drive it with Florida plates while I'm in Ontario?
Ontario Transportation Ministry spokesperson Bob Nichols replies:
Because you're an Ontario resident, the vehicle may not be driven here with Florida plates. Once the vehicle enters Ontario (the owner's home jurisdiction), it should be registered with Ontario licence plates.
