RVing with a HD Pick up in Ontario

Any vehicle in Ontario with a gvwr over 4,500kgs (9900lbs) is automatically deemed a commercial vehicle regardless of its purpose. Ontario recently deleted the requirement for annual license plate stickers and the fees (still have to renew annually but there is no fee or date sticker) for non commercial vehicles but commercial vehicles still have a renewal fee. The amount of the fee depends on the gvwr it is registered for. You can actually register for a max gvwr for the summer tow season and then get a refund by going back and registering it for lower when not towing the rest of the year. You just need to make sure you raise it back before you’re going to tow again. The fines for towing over registered weight are very high if caught. I can’t be bothered with the hassle to save a few bucks and pay for the max gvwr.
